ReScape Firescaping Qualification Training (FQT) Online

Two Days: December 5 & 6, 2023

9:00am – 1:00pm, online

ReScape’s Resilient Regenerative Firescaping Qualification Training (FQT) is based on their 8 Principles for Regenerative Landscapes and establishes a more sustainable long-term approach to managing fire hazards beyond current vegetation management practices. The course provides comprehensive best practices in regenerative landscaping, specifically oriented to reducing fire hazards and preparing cities and large property owners/managers for safety before, during and after a firestorm. It offers cities and communities a pragmatic framework to limit wildfire damage by developing and managing landscapes, advocating for maintenance on others, and supporting property owners to design, build and maintain for fire.

The Firescaping Qualification Training (FQT) will be taught by Douglas Kent, author of the best-selling book on landscaping for fire protection, “Firescaping, Protecting Your Home with a Fire-Resistant Landscape, 2nd Edition.”
