MEMBERS
FARM & LAND MEMBERS
If you are a farm owner or a landowner in the Overberg, you can become a goFPA member. Membership is voluntary for private landowners, and when you sign up, you’ll receive all the support the goFPA team offers our members – through integrated fire management assistance.

Members will form part of a Fire Management Unit – a grouping of landowners who will manage fire across their units together.
