Summary
One hundred ninety-nine thousand dollars is being invested to shield Upper Hammonds Plains — a historic African Nova Scotian community with over two hundred years of heritage — from wildfires. The funding supports the community land trust’s efforts to assess risks, educate homeowners, and clear flammable materials around properties, following FireSmart Canada guidelines. This comes after last year’s devastating Tantallon wildfire exposed vulnerabilities, especially in emergency access and infrastructure. The initiative also pushes for improved water systems and connectivity, marking a vital first step in safeguarding this culturally rich area while building long-term resilience.
