"Our ethos of responsible wildland stewardship, interagency collaboration and community education is the driving force that fuels our passion for the work we feel privileged to do."

About Us

The Butte County Fire Safe Council (BCFSC) is a grass-roots nonprofit founded in 1998, born from a simple yet enduring belief: that the wellbeing of our communities and the health of our forests are inseparable.

Over the last 26 years, the stakes have only grown higher. Increasingly intense wildfires are a lived reality for Californians—and will continue to be.

That's why our vision is long-term and future-facing, deeply committed to the ongoing stewardship of the ridges, canyons, forests, streams, meadows, and communities across Butte County—from Clipper Mills to Cohasset.
