Wine Country to the Rescue Proudly Sponsors the 6th Annual Wildfire & Earthquake Expo 2026


At Wine Country to the Rescue, our mission has always been clear: support the brave first responders who protect our homes, families, and communities in Northern Sonoma County, especially when wildfires and other disasters strike. That’s why we’re excited to announce that we are a proud sponsor of the 6th Annual Wildfire & Earthquake Expo, taking place on Sunday, April 26, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa.

This free, family-friendly event is Sonoma County’s largest and most comprehensive emergency preparedness gathering. Hosted by NoSoCoCERT in partnership with Fire Safe Sonoma and other local organizations, the Expo brings together residents, first responders, experts, and vendors to help our community get ready for the threats we know all too well — wildfires and earthquakes.


What to Expect at the Expo

  • Hands-on demonstrations and live simulations

  • Fire extinguisher training

  • Earthquake Shake Trailer experience

  • Up-close look at the Henry 1 helicopter

  • Resilient landscape design displays

  • Exhibitor booths packed with practical tools, products, and expert advice

  • Free breakfast, food trucks, and one Go Bag per family (while supplies last)

  • Fun activities for all ages and presentations in both English and Spanish

Whether you’re a homeowner looking to harden your property, a family wanting to build an emergency plan, or someone who simply wants to meet the firefighters and agencies that serve us, this is the perfect day to learn, connect, and get prepared.


Why This Partnership Matters

Every dollar raised at Wine Country to the Rescue goes directly to equipping our local firefighters with life-saving tools, improving wildfire communication systems, supporting Community Outreach and Preparedness Education (COPE) groups, and funding critical training — including swift water rescue and other specialized skills.

Sponsoring the Wildfire & Earthquake Expo is a natural extension of that work. By helping bring practical, hands-on preparedness education to thousands of Sonoma County residents, we’re building a stronger, more resilient community together — one that’s better able to protect itself and support our first responders when it matters most.
