Thursday, November 3rd, our guest Paula Henson of Terra Bella and Poly/Ana invite virtual attendees to a reading of Who Needs a Forest Fire? a picture book for ages 6-9. Discover why we actually need some fires–just not the megafires we have today. After the Gold Rush huge numbers of people arrived in California and disrupted the balanced relationship between nature and the indigenous people of the Sierra Nevada forest.

Now we have massive, destructive blazes. But it doesn’t need to be this way. By changing our attitudes toward fire we can learn from those who know the forest best and take action to find balance once again.

This event is free to attend. Donations are welcomed. thepolyana.org/donate

All donations help fund the budding nonprofit Poly/Ana and its mission to educate and benefit the environment. Please only sign up if you plan on attending.
