Community Chipping Days

In collaboration with the Grand County Wildfire Council (GCWC), East Grand Fire Protection District is hosting a FREE Community Chipping Day! Our goal is to help homeowners in our community reduce their wildfire risk by creating a disposal site for your slash. You create a defensible space around your home and we will chip your material for free! Drop off required.
