The Napa Communities Firewise Foundation, Land Trust of Napa County, and the Angwin Fire Safe Council are collaborating to develop a mile-long Linda Falls fuel break to protect the rural hilltop community of Angwin.
âAngwin is one of the few places across Napa that has not burned in the last few years and therefore, wildfire risk mitigation there is seen as a county-wide priority,â said JC Greenberg, of Cal Fire and Napa County Fire who helped plan the project. âIt is encouraging to see this partnership develop and lead to real on-the-ground fuels reduction.â
