A six-sided patch edged in brown merrow, with a flaming pine cone set on a sunburst at center. Four lettering fields hold a place name, a volunteer fire line, a unit line and a short motto. Tan and brown carry the field, while orange and red are kept for the flames so the fire is the first thing anyone sees.

About this flaming pine cone wildland hexagon
Some conifer cones only open in fire, which makes a burning pine cone a fitting emblem for crews that work the wildland edge. Set on a sunburst inside a hexagon, it reads as forest, heat and season in one image. The earthy tan-and-brown base matches the khaki and green many wildland volunteers wear, and keeps the patch from looking like a structural fire design.
Customize it for your company: put your district and unit name in the lettering, swap the motto for your crew's own phrase, or order a subdued tan-on-brown version for line gear. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Volunteer wildland fire patch questions
Can the pine cone be replaced with a different tree or cone?
Yes. We can redraw it as a fir cone, a single pine, an oak leaf or your own emblem, keeping the flames and sunburst. The proof shows the swap before production.
Is this design suitable for yellow wildland shirts?
Yes. The tan, brown and orange palette sits well on yellow and khaki brush shirts. If you want more contrast, a darker brown border can be shown on your mockup.
Can we change the unit line?
Yes. The unit line restitches to brush crew, wildland team, engine number or any division name your company uses.
Do you make a version for fire-prevention events?
Yes. Many companies order an iron-on run of the same art for outreach tables, school visits and education days.
What size works on a cap?
2.5 inches wide. The pine cone and sunburst simplify slightly at that size, and you approve the cap version on your proof.
