Since 1993, The Nature Conservancy has been utilizing “good fire” as a conservation tool to restore the tallgrass prairie ecosystem at the Tallgrass Prairie Preserve in Pawhuska, OK. Utilizing a “patch-burn” model approach, staff have burned over one million acres in Osage County by conducting prescribed burns on the 40,000-acre preserve, as well as partnering with neighboring landowners to assist in the burning of their property.
Meet Burn Bob and learn how prescribed burns on and off the preserve are helping Osage County thrive!
