Butte Cal-TREX, Fall 2024

October 11 - October 13

Prescribed Fire Training Exchange

Deadline to register:  Sept 8, 2024

From the Butte County Resource Conservation District:

What is TREX?  A TREX, short for “Training Exchange,” is a festival of fire learning, a training event where we build “good fire” skills.  Butte Cal-TREX is designed so both professionals and ordinary people can get better at putting good fire on the ground in and around our rural communities. Just like the Butte Prescribed Burn Association which is open to all, it’s about the belief that everybody deserves to know how to use fire wisely. 

When is it?  Butte Cal-TREX has 2 parts: pre-fire training weekends (Oct 11-13 and Oct 19-20 2024) and an on-call burn window (Fall 2024 – April 2024). During this “on-call window,” we will be burning a variety of State, Federal, University, and private lands around our foothill communities whenever we have a safe and ecologically healthy opportunity to do so!
