Napa Prescribed Burn Association
Napa Prescribed Burn Association was established in 2023 and is working to build a community around helping neighbors bring good fire to the landscape. Currently we are working on outreach, education, and training opportunities to engage the community in safe and ecological burning. We welcome and encourage anyone interested in prescribed fire to join us!
