The Gruyere Fire Brigade is composed of a small group of local volunteers who meet at least weekly and make themselves available to help in times of local emergencies. The Gruyere CFA Fire Brigade regularly attends situations that occur in the neighbouring towns and appreciate forming close ties with the local community and other CFA brigades in the Yarra Ranges area.
