We can help you with plant selection, placement and maintenance, to preserve and even add to wildlife habitat, while keeping your property and neighborhood fire-wise and sustainable.

• Recommendations for fire-wise landscaping in the 0-5′, 5-30′ and 30-100′ defensible space zones, with specific plant and design suggestions
• Practical ways to reconcile sometimes conflicting guidelines, so you can have a biodiverse, energy-saving, water- and fire-wise landscape
• A practical understanding of what it means to be sustainable in an ever-changing California climate
