We’ve asked Mr. Florence to cover a wide range of topics – tree mortality, especially finding our way around all the agencies that are trying to help; what’s being planned for this summer’s fire season; and what other possible emergencies or resources should we be aware of? Mr. Florence has a wealth of information that he will be sharing with us.
