The Rincon Firewise Community borders Kensington’s primary evacuation route, Arlington Avenue, and two notable landmarks: Blake Garden and the Carmelite Monastery.
In 2025, we established our Firewise Community to reduce wildfire risk on our properties, collaborate with other Kensington Firewise groups on vegetation management along our western border, and address evacuation challenges at our intersections with Arlington Avenue.

This 15' x 50' slope was overgrown with vegetation, including a huge, hazardous juniper hedge. Flames would threaten both the home and the cars evacuating on Arlington Avenue. It's now been cleared and replanted with less fire-prone plants.
Household Activity Reports ensure Firewise Recognition is renewed annually. They also help shape Kensington's wildfire programs.
Participating households track and report their risk reduction activities online or via email. Contact your organizers for details.
Organizers compile neighborhood numbers and report them to Firewise USA each year. Residents' personal information is never shared.
