Santa Lucia Preserve to conduct prescribed burn this fall

I’m reaching out to notify you that this fall, the Santa Lucia Conservancy will conduct prescribed burns near the Hacienda within the Santa Lucia Preserve.
Because prescribed burns are dependent on weather conditions, the date of the burn is subject to change with little notice. We will email you necessary updates. To learn more about the goals of the prescribed burn and the measures we have in place to ensure safety, please read our prescribed burn fact sheet or reach out to Conservancy staff:
Dr. Rodrigo Sierra CoronaDirector of Ecological Managementrsierracorona@slconservancy.org(831) 238-1477
Jackson BrookeRestoration Managerjbrooke@slconservancy.org (831) 402-9499
Thanks,

Jackson

Editor’s note: The preserve is located between Carmel Valley and Garrapata State Park. It is depicted in the somewhat grayed out map in the lower left.
