The Kent Fuller Air Station Prairie is a 32-acre remnant of a tall-grass prairie that once stretched for millions of
square miles across North America.
Exhibits at the Tyner Interpretive Center illustrate the many aspects of the prairie environment. The building serves as
a showcase for “green technology”, while pathways through the property allow visitors to experience the changes in
the prairie through the seasons.
