Make a Difference Day
Make a Difference Day at Ohme Gardens
Saturday, October 25 • 8:00 am
Location: 3327 Ohme Rd. Wenatchee WA
This fall, roll up your sleeves and join us for a day that blends hands-on stewardship with practical learning. Together, we’ll protect the future of Ohme Gardens while discovering new ways to care for our land and community.
What We’ll Be Doing
- Fuel Reduction & Fire Safety
Partnering with Cascadia Conservation and our local fire district, volunteers will help chip and clear slash piles along the western edge of the Gardens—important work that strengthens our defensible space and reduces wildfire risk. - Biokiln Workshop & Demo
In our overflow parking lot, we’ll introduce the community to a biokiln, a flame-cap kiln that turns woody debris into biochar. This method is safe, sustainable, and especially valuable for property owners in fire-prone areas. Come learn how it works—and why it matters.
Why Join Us?
- Be part of an active solution to protect Ohme Gardens and our community from fire danger.
- Learn cutting-edge land management techniques you can use at home.
- Connect with neighbors, conservation experts, and fellow volunteers who care deeply about this place.
Your time and energy will make a lasting impact—helping keep Ohme Gardens safe, beautiful, and thriving for generations to come.
Bring gloves, sturdy shoes, and a willingness to get a little dirty. We’ll provide tools, training, and plenty of gratitude.
