Punkin-Evergreen Volunteer Fire Department is a Non-Profit organization that provides fire protection and suppression for San Jacinto County ESD 1. We provide superior Wildland fire protection to the Sam Houston National Forest and Texas State Forest. We also provide Technical Rescue(i.e. trench rescue, swift-water rescue, rope rescue, confined space rescue, auto extrication and search & rescue). We are currently in the process of increasing and advancing our First Responder program.
PEVFD also offers public fire safety and education for residents, businesses and local schools.
We have a staff of 31 volunteer Firefighters, Paramedics and Support Staff and are currently recruiting additional volunteers regardless if you have training or not. Please call us or come to our Tuesday night meetings which are held at the Fire Station from 7p-9p every week.
