Our Cypress Native Plant Restoration and Fire Mitigation Project is the perfect way to show our community some love!
Help us make Paradise and our planet a safer and more regenerative place, all with an eye toward making connections with your neighbors on the Ridge! In this series of interactive workshops and hands-on workdays, local experts in native plants, permaculture and fire mitigation will demonstrate practical techniques to safeguard your property while protecting its ecology. Then, put your new knowledge to work making Paradise a more beautiful and sustainable place for our future neighbors at CHIP's Cypress Family Apartments.
You'll get lots of hands-on experience that you can take home to your own property!
