Fire-Resilient Landscapes: Creating Beautiful Gardens for Defensible Space

an online symposium presented by APLD CA Chapter Advocacy Committee

December 1-4, 2021

This symposium features valuable insights and tools to help designers, contractors, and horticulturists create aesthetically appealing landscapes while safeguarding homes and their surroundings.

This symposium is the first step in a broader goal: to provide leading-edge education on fire-resilient landscapes for the health of our clients, communities, environment, and ecosystems. Designers and allied professionals who design, install, and maintain landscapes can then provide their essential services to support fire-resilient landscapes.
