The Get Outside Book Club: The Last Fire Season

The Get Outside Book Club is the place build community around books and authors with connections to the natural world in Sonoma County.  Seasonally, we’ll gather on a preserve stewarded by LandPaths in Sonoma County to discuss a work that connects with the region – memoir, graphic novels, cleverly written field guides, fiction – in conversation with the book’s author. That’s right! We’ll be joined by the author of the selected works, who will answer your questions, share insider tips from their writing, and participate in the discussion! Plus, we’ll have special guests (LandPaths’ staff and volunteers) who will speak to the ecologies of the place, depending on the book’s subject matter.

Burn Pile Volunteer Stewardship Day at Riddell Preserve

It’s wildfire fuels reduction time on the preserve! Now that we’ve pulled tons of French Broom and lopped Douglas Firs, it’s time to minimize the woody debris while it’s okay to do burn piles. The more people we have, the more we can do!
