🌲Volunteer Opportunity with LandPaths 🌲

Join LandPaths for a hands-on day supporting forest health and wildfire prevention. Volunteers will help thin and prune forested areas and, if conditions allow, safely burn brush piles—an efficient, beginner-friendly way to reduce wildfire fuel and protect our community.

Activities may include:

• Moderate hiking

• Gathering wood debris & building burn piles

• Lighting, managing, and extinguishing burn piles

• Using hand tools to shape piles & assess heat

Please bring:

• Lunch, snacks & 2+ liters of water (no potable water onsite)

• Backpack, sturdy boots, long non-synthetic pants

• Sunglasses/safety glasses, bandana, leather gloves

• Hat & sunscreen

Good to know:

• ~1.5-mile round-trip hike on a somewhat steep, well-graded trail

• Liability waiver required

• No pets, smoking, or vaping

📍 Meet at: Rancho Mark West Preserve: 7125 St Helena Road, Santa Rosa (Allow ~25 minutes from downtown Santa Rosa)

👉 Please RSVP by February 15 through Grapevine so that we can provide LandPaths with an accurate headcount.
