Fire Management Council, Co-lead of the Indigenous People’s Burn Network, and
member of the International Indigenous-led Fire Network. Margo is a mom and a
grandma, and lives on the Yurok Reservation in far Northern California, United

Margo shares how carefully working with fire can help water return to the
land, create healthier habitats for plants and animals, and support the renewal
of important species. Together, Lyla and Margo explore cultural burning as a
relationship with the land based in care, responsibility, and knowledge passed
down through generations.
