Warmer weather predicted for next week. While we are still in Moderate Fire Hazard Rating, this weekend would be a good time to mow & trim any long grass near your home and anywhere on your property. 

In the event of a wildfire, embers can be blown downwind and easily ignite dry leaves, cones, and grass. Make sure that you clear a minimum of 10 metres around your home and any outbuildings. 

Now is the time to take action. You won’t have time to get prepared once fire is at your doorstep. Learn more at
