Rewilding In Action - 16 - Fight Fire with a Green Firebreak - Dr Tim Curran
Update: 2025-04-03
Description
When forests are young, flammable species like manuka, kanuka and gorse dominate. To reduce the risk of fire, an effective tool is to plant a native green firebreak between our homes and our naturally rewilding forest. What’s a green firebreak? What species should we plant? How wide should the firebreak be, where should it go and how can we look after it?
