Wildfire Readiness
It’s 2025 and my resolution is to let them; to let things, people, circumstances I cannot control go. And that list is long. But wildfire preparedness is not one of them.
There are many titles on my vc, but the one most applicable for this topic today, is Earth-loving human. Desert Bloom Landscape Design is a landscape design firm rooted in the core principals of Stewardship Gardening and sustainability. I truly want to foster a greater, aligned way of landscaping in Boulder. As the Wildfire Neighborhood Ambassador for the University Hill Neighborhood, I’ve been trained by Fire Adapted Colorado and am part of a network of volunteers in the city and the Boulder Fire Department to work towards the goal of wildfire preparedness. The question is not if Boulder will have a wildfire, but when. Today I urge you to sign up for a Detailed Home Assessment with the city. Demand is high so please, simply follow this link and get scheduled.
