WILDER THAN WILD: Fire, Forests and the Future reveals how fuel build-up and climate change have made Western wildlands vulnerable to large, high intensity wildfires, while greenhouse gases released from these fires accelerate climate change - a vicious cycle that jeopardizes our forests and affects us all with extreme weather and more wildfires – some of which are now entering highly populated wildland-urban areas. Filmmaker Kevin White takes us on a journey from the Rim Fire of 2013, which burned 257,000 acres in the central Sierra, to the wine country wildfires of 2017, which destroyed 9,000 buildings and killed 44 people. Along the way, we learn how the proactive use of prescribed fire can reduce reliance on reactive fire suppression, and we meet stakeholder groups working with scientists and innovative resource managers to build consensus on how to restore and manage the lands we love and depend on. Meet Filmmaker and Author Stephen Most!

Come share what you’ve been reading in our all-inclusive book club. No assigned reading, just bring yourself and your reading experience.

The scope, spread and fierceness of the 2017 fire season, for the residents of Napa county; have sharpened our attention to the need to be and stay aware of ways to prepare for, and respond, to the threat of wildfires and other disasters that will surely come in the years to come. We invite you to come and share a 30 minute reflection and stories about your experience of the fires last year, or in years before .

As a child, Meghan Flaherty was sexually abused. As a young adult, she found she was uncomfortable touching people and averse to taking risks and pursuing passion in all parts of her life. She never spoke of her past, but the shame she felt for it was buried close to the surface. Stalled professionally and personally, she knew something had to change. And so, she followed an old dream, and ended up in tango class—an unlikely extracurricular for a woman afraid of being touched—but ultimately a life-changing one.
