Fire in Alameda County

The 1991 Tunnel Fire in the Oakland hills — 25 lives, nearly 3,000 homes — remains the fire the entire East Bay measures against, and it made Alameda County one of California's earliest and most committed adopters of goat grazing. Grass fires on the county's golden hills, from Mission Peak to the Altamont, are an annual certainty.

The terrain we work here

Steep East Bay hills that cure gold by June, eucalyptus and brush in the Oakland/Berkeley hills, regional parkland, and the wildland-urban seam that runs the county's entire length.

Common questions

Do you serve all of Alameda County?

Yes — we serve qualifying projects (roughly 5 acres and up) throughout Alameda County and the wider Bay Area region, including unincorporated areas. Neighbors on smaller adjacent parcels often combine into one project.

Do you work with Alameda County agencies, HOAs, and commercial owners?

Yes. We're licensed, registered, and insured, with experience serving government agencies, and we provide the documentation public and commercial buyers need — scoped proposals, insurance certificates, and project reporting. Fuel-reduction grants (including CAL FIRE prevention grants and the SB 675 prescribed-grazing pathway) can fund qualifying public projects.

When should Alameda County properties book grazing?

For fire-season preparation, the ideal grazing window is March–May, and calendars fill one to three months ahead — book in winter for first pick. Summer grazing still reduces cured fuel with zero spark risk, and fall/winter suits brush and invasive-removal projects.

Alameda County agency, HOA, or commercial project?

We work with municipalities, fire districts, HOAs, utilities, schools, and commercial owners — licensed, registered, and insured, with experience in public procurement.
