The Overberg has experienced 25 major fires since the start of December. Fire-fighting teams battled many of these fires for more than a week.
The goFPA is so grateful to everyone who helped to bring these fires under control – from the landowners and farmworkers supporting fire-fighting teams on the ground, to those living in or visiting the Overberg who provided provisions and donations to support the work.
We’ve got a couple of extremely hot – and dry months ahead of us. And our work is not done yet.
Here’s an overview of the Overberg’s major fires since December:
