The Department of Forestry and Fire Management (DFFM) has started a fuels reduction project within Oracle State Park in an ongoing effort to protect Arizona’s communities and improve the health of the state’s

DFFM foresters designed the 36-acre Cherry Project to reduce the wildfire threat to the park and nearby communities as well as to improve the resiliency of Arizona’s native vegetation.
