Building Habitats for Wildlife While Protecting Against Wildfire

Sacramento Corpsmember Ashton Call uses a chain saw to cut up downed tree branches to reduce fuel for fire and to create habitat for wildlife.

Restoring and maintaining our natural areas. It’s most definitely an example of hard work.

CCC Sacramento Corpsmembers are up for the task.

They’re completing a dual mission at Deer Creek Hills Nature Preserve near Rancho Murieta.

They’re helping protect the preserve from large scale wildfires, but reducing vegetation that can lead to greenhouse gas emissions.

At the same time, they’re helping the native wildlife survive and thrive within the preserve. Talk about a win-win.
