Clear and Chip Your Property to Prevent Fire

We limbed lower branches on our trees, weedwhacked overgrown brush, and chipped over 30 piles of branches. Phew!

That was an intense few weeks of weekend work to get it done in time for the Resource Conversation District to send chipping contractors out to chip our branches into mulch. I organized the chipping program on my road and got to meet wonderful neighbors who share my concern about fire prevention.

This is the first time in over 30 years that we’ve made a concerted effort to clear our property, and I’m so glad we did. It opened up the space between the trees and the trees will be able to thrive now. It looks like a park setting instead of a jungle!

There’s still time to clear 100-feet of defensible space around your homes!  Get started!
