Our History

 

FREE chipping.org is a cooperative effort of fire safe councils in the Inland Empire, sponsored by Mountain Rim Fire Safe Council (MRFSC) and the Inland Empire Fire Safe Alliance (IEFSA).  MRFSC has been serving the Rim Communities in the San Bernardino Mountains since 1999. More than 14 fire safe councils operate in the Inland Empire - helping neighbors learn about defensible space and what each property owner can do to make a difference in the face of wildfire.
