Create a Fire Adapted yard before fire season by removing easily ignited fuels. We are holding 2 FREE events to help reduce costs in removing flammable vegetation around your home. Challenge yourself and your neighbors to bring as many Green Debris loads as you can for each event day! Drop it off free of charge! ACCEPTED MATERIALS: Only organic green debris will be accepted. This includes leaves, pine needles, small branches (up to 6 inches in diameter), brush and other green debris. PROHIBITED MATERIALS: Please leave trash, stumps, logs, firewood, soil, dirt, rocks & treated lumber at home. If you bring your green debris in bags, the bags need to be emptied and taken home. Why: Removing wildfire fuel like leaves, pine needles and small branches from on and around your home and out of rain gutters can significantly reduce your wildfire risk and help prevent the spread of wildfire within Ashland.
