Mother Lode Prescribed Burn Association Celebrates Grassland Burn & Hiring a Part-Time Coordinator.
Posted by: News_Desk on 11/27/2022 04:42 PM
Sonora, CA... The Mother Lode Prescribed Burn Association, which brings together local residents, landowners and fire professionals in Calaveras and Tuolumne Counties, is gearing up for the next year of events. The goal of the group is to mentor landowners to use prescribed fire on their own properties. The group was convened in July 2021 by Susie Kocher, Forestry Advisor for the University of California Cooperative Extension in the central Sierra Nevada. “Prescribed Burn Associations or PBAs are groups of landowners helping each other to both learn how to use prescribed fire to manage their properties and to help each other carry it out. They have been common in other states in the Midwest and Southeast United States but are relatively new to California,” said Kocher. The first PBA was formed in Humboldt County in 2017 and now there are at least 20 in various stages of development throughout the state (http://calpba.org).

Mountain Ranch, CA…In 1950, we started out as a family operation with Erich’s father and mother, August and Freida Sender, in a century-old adobe building. The upstairs was home to the Sender family, and the first floor included groceries, a meat market, a bar, and a small eating place called Opa’s Smokehouse. On Christmas morning in 1968, the old store was destroyed by fire. But in June 1969, Sender’s Market, Inc. was opened. Since that time, there have been many changes, including remodeling, expansion, and the addition of many employees. That’s also when we added the truss plant and purchased Sender’s Market Ace Hardware in Valley Springs. Today, we’re still family owned and still working hard to stock everything from pantry essentials to power tools. Whether you’ve got questions about the perfect cut of meat or the right kind of paint, our helpful, knowledgeable staff has you covered. Click on images below for larger versions.
