Natural History Pub: With Fire, Comes Smoke: Living in a Fire-Dependent Ecosystem

Fire plays an integral role in Central Oregon’s ecosystem. Towering Ponderosas require frequent low-intensity fire to sustain. Fire practitioners implement prescribed burns in the spring and fall to mimic historic fire return intervals while summer wildfires often dot the landscape. Free with RSVP.
