Since the 2018 Camp Fire, which destroyed much of Paradise and surrounding areas,
those returning to live on the Ridge have had a keen interest not only in building fire-
resistant housing, but also in creating fire-resistant landscaping. The selection and
spacing of landscape plants can go a long way toward protecting your home should
another wildfire occur. Below are resources to help you create a fire-wise garden.
