About Homeowners & Landowners
Owning property can be a wonderful experience.
Many landowners enjoy the ability to view wildlife
from their backyard, appreciate the beauty of
their forest, and simply enjoy the serenity that
their property affords. However, responsibilities
come with owning land. There are also many questions
landowners may have in regards to taking care
of their property or forest. Often asked questions
include: how can I reduce the risk of wildfire;
how and when do I plant trees; can I enhance the
wildlife habitat on my property; and how can I
make my forest healthier? The Colorado State Forest
Service can provide assistance in managing your
land and answering these questions.

Protecting Your Home, Forest
and Property From Wildfire
Homeowners and landowners can take a number of
steps to protect their property and ensure that
they do not assist in the spread of wildland fires.
This includes clearing excess fuel, creating defensible
space around their homes, and using FireWise practices.
Many Coloradoans living in the foothills in ponderosa
and lodgepole forests consider the fire-prone
nature of these ecosystems.
