Fire season preparation
Much of Ventura County has high fire risk, and wind events can push fires quickly. State law and local fire agencies require defensible space around homes in many areas. A cleanup can help by:
- Removing dead plants, dry grass, and weeds
- Clearing leaves and debris from roofs, gutters, and near structures
- Keeping flammable mulch and plants away from the home’s immediate perimeter
- Spacing and thinning shrubs
Check with the Ventura County Fire Department or your city fire department about specific requirements.
Ongoing maintenance
- Mowing and edging
- Seasonal pruning
- Weed control
- Irrigation checks and adjustments
- Fertilizing where appropriate

Green waste
Most cities offer curbside green waste bins, and California’s organics recycling rules encourage keeping green waste out of landfills. Landscapers typically haul larger volumes to a green waste facility.
