WHERE WE WORK
In the past few years, TREX have been hosted in 10 states—Arizona, California, Iowa, Maine, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oregon, Virginia, and Washington. Participants have come from 42 states, Puerto Rico and eight foreign countries, including Australia, Canada, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Germany, Mexico, South Africa, and Spain. With mentoring from TREX coaches, international participants have gone on to host trainings in Canada, Portugal, South Africa, and Spain.
Most TREX events take place in the spring or fall, when conditions are mostly likely to be good for safe and effective prescribed burning. TREX events that are accepting applications can be found under the “Prescribed Fire Training Exchanges (TREX) & Cooperative Burning” category on the News & Events page.
