🇺🇸 Happy 4th of July everyone! With fire departments stretched to their limits and all additional fire resources devoted to fighting the Thompson Fire in Oroville, we ask that you celebrate without fireworks of any type this year.

🥩 If you’re grilling outdoors, keep a fire extinguisher within easy reach to properly manage any type of mishap.

🍺 Instead of fireworks, grab a beer from your favorite local brewery, like Farmers, and celebrate the holiday with those closest to you.

🔥 Please keep those currently under evacuation orders in your thoughts and prayers. Offer to host them at your home if possible and ask if there’s anything you can do to help. It’s been a rough start to fire season already, but we all can make a difference in how it goes from here.

♥️🤍💙
