International Permaculture Day#santabarbarapermaculturenetwork presents…
Book signing and talk with author Obi Kaufmann — The State of the Fire: Why California Burns
WHEN: Thurs Feb 20 6:30 pm 2025
Cost: FREE
WHERE: Fe Bland Auditorium West Campus S.B. City College, Santa Barbara, CA 93109.
Followed by an Interactive Community Panel & SB Poet Laureate Melinda Palaclo.
How do we live with fire? From the creator of The California Field Atlas, a book of stewardship, resilience, and hope. Fire is an essential part of California’s ecology. Humans have used it to shape the California landscape for thousands of years. But today many Californians’ relationship to fire is one of fear.
Obi Kaufmann, author of the best-selling California Field Atlas, now asks:
How do we live with fire?
What makes fire essential to a healthy and biodiverse Golden State, and how do we benefit from its teachings?
Kaufmann presents fire as a force of regeneration rather than apocalypse. He considers the long history of ecological burns, the varied ways fire behaves across the state, and the lessons we can learn from California’s largest fires of recent decades. Packed with Kaufmann’s signature watercolor maps and paintings.
