I have had a wonderful experience with a man who I hired to do dead tree trimming and make a 25' fire break for the lower canyon of my property.
He is a 4th generation Maidu Indian.....rare.He worked for a beloved local tree guy,and the branched off on his own.
The perfect bi-partisan scorch burn to oppose the property owners around year who have not done anything in over 25 years.
Insurance companies are dropping people 's policies just out side of town.
Thinking about what Earth Day meant to people in 1974 when I became aware,and what it means now........?
Such a relief for me .
