Fire Ready Home and Landscape

​

Wildfire is part of life in the Okanogan, but losing a house doesn't have to be. This class will cover the science of home ignitions and best practices to keep a home from igniting during a wildfire event. Since embers from wildfires can travel over a mile from the main fire, homeowners in more developed areas or surrounded by irrigated agriculture can be at risk along with those in forested or sageland areas. 

 

According to a student who took the class last spring, “this talk was outstanding: very well organized, important information, clearly explained, communicated with enthusiasm. Awesome visuals”.
