SUMMARY:Be Prepared for the Next Wildfire with Fire-Resistant Landscaping
DESCRIPTION:A spark can quickly become a wildfire like it did during the Crabapple fire that burned nearly 10\,000 acres and destroyed nine residences and several other buildings. Are you ready for the next fire? A fire could strike at any moment and with the right conditions threaten your home regardless if you live on acreage in the county or in a subdivision. \n\n\n\nDayziah Petruska\, Wildland Urban Interface Coordinator for Texas A&M Forest Service Region 6 (which includes Gillespie County) will speak about the basics of fire behavior and how property owners can prepare for and decrease the risk of structure loss in wildfire situations. She will also discuss home hardening strategies and fire-resistant landscaping.  \n\n\n\nThe meeting begins at 7 p.m. at St. Joseph’s Halle (212 W. San Antonio St.\, Fredericksburg) and doors open at 6:30 p.m. for social time.
