Help prep Lyle landowners’ properties for spring burns! We'll dig fire line, protect oak trees, and remove limbs/downed wood as needed. We will also spend some time talking about the burn planning process at these sites. This event is open to all & is family friendly. You can participate in whatever manner you’re able (even if that just means hanging out & enjoying the beautiful oak woodland). Lunch & snacks provided!

Join us for our spring quarterly meeting on Monday, March 10 at 6:00 pm at the White Salmon Fire Department! 119 NE Church Ave, White Salmon, WA 98672

On the agenda: PBA updates, then a presentation by Adam Lieberg (Columbia Land Trust) about his recent work planning & prioritizing landscape treatments (including prescribed fire!) for local lands managed by CLT. Stick around afterward for a social hour at Everybody's Brewing across the street.

Underwood Conservation District is partnering with Atlan Center & Back to Life Biochar to launch this year’s winter workshop series with an outdoor event all about Biochar!  Back to Life Biochar Hands-On Workshop will be outdoors, in the Husum area, observing different stages of making biochar, participating in live demonstrations of biochar creation, discussing various techniques and scales for making your own biochar, learning more about the benefits of biochar, and also learning about amending soil with biochar.  Come warm up by the fire and plan on a hands-on experience.  We’re also excited to grow a community of interested biochar-makers who want to share information and resources on a local level. 

Winter member meeting. Open to anyone!

This meeting will be held VIRTUALLY via Zoom. More information, including the Zoom link, will be shared via the MAPBA email list!

​Join the PBA for a burn unit prep party at a landowner's property in Trout Lake! We'll build fireline around a unit we hope to burn next year, and spend some time talking about the burn planning process at this site.

Fall member meeting. Open to anyone!

Location: Catherine Creek House (park at the Catherine Creek Trailhead on Old Highway 8 and walk south across the road)

Agenda to be announced soon!

Why have our wildfires gotten larger and more severe? What makes a forest resilient to disturbance and changing climatic conditions? How can we manage our landscapes to prepare them for an uncertain future? Join the Mt. Adams Prescribed Burn Association and Dr. Paul Hessburg to tackle these questions and many more.

Summer quarterly member meeting at Nate & Betsy Putnam’s home in Glenwood.

We're hosting a (free!) burn plan writing workshop on Saturday, March 16th at the Glenwood Grange. More information and registration at this link.

No prescribed fire experience is required to attend. However, this workshop is targeted toward private landowners/managers seriously considering using prescribed fire on their properties. The agenda will include presented material, field time at a burn unit, and unstructured time for folks to work on their own projects (and ask any specific questions) alongside instructors and peers.

Our spring 2024 quarterly meeting will be held at Ekone Ranch in Goldendale (401 Ekone Rd). We’ll spend some time walking through Ekone’s planned burn unit, then have a discussion about the leadership and membership structure of our new PBA. Food provided! Please email sarah@mtadamsstewards.org to RSVP.
