Landscaping for Fire Protection
by Nikki Hanson, California Sisters Landscapes

What kind of home landscape can be both aesthetically pleasing and more fire-resistant? Savvy choices in plants, placement and landscape materials are the key ingredients that can make a world of difference. Nikki will share her experience and practical knowledge to help us understand this overwhelming topic. She will show us before/after photos from gardens she has installed and discuss which plants are chosen, and why. Nikki also takes into consideration how the mini-ecosystem of a garden can best support local, native animals and insects.
