Publications
We produce publications and fact sheets to help prepare the community for bushfire safety. You can place an order for brochures.
Your guide to Bushfire Safety
This guide has information to help you protect your home and family.
It explains ways of making your property less vulnerable to bushfire attack, will help you make the correct choices if a bushfire threatens and incorporates a template for your Bushfire Survival Plan.

Community Fire Safe
Community Fire Safe is a program coordinated by the CFS that encourages residents living in bushfire risk areas to form small groups and work together in preparing and protecting their families and properties from bushfire. These groups can consist of just a few families living in the same street or area who face a common bushfire threat.
Also available as audio.

Firey Women
We have developed a workshop designed to provide women with a safe non-threatening setting to learn new skills to protect their families and livelihoods. To see upcoming events please visit the Community Programs page.
Reducing fire risk in gardens
Urban landscapes, including parks and gardens, can be planned and designed to minimise vulnerability and strengthen resistance to fire. Careful attention needs to be paid to design, plant selection, materials and product selection and the maintenance of our garden environments.
The Botanic Gardens of Adelaide Plant Selector+ is a comprehensive, relevant and user-friendly online resource to help achieve more sustainable urban landscapes through improved plant selections.
