The Nature Conservancy in Oklahoma is a non-profit organization dedicated to the conservation and preservation of the state's grasslands, forests, rivers, and mesas. Established in the mid-1980s by Joe Williams, the organization has been instrumental in protecting and restoring the tallgrass prairie of northern Oklahoma. Through their efforts, they have created the Joseph H. Williams Tallgrass Prairie Preserve, a 40,000-acre sanctuary that is home to a herd of free-range bison.
With a focus on tackling climate change, protecting ocean and land, and providing food and water sustainably, The Nature Conservancy in Oklahoma is committed to leaving a lasting legacy for future generations. They offer educational resources, volunteer opportunities, and events to engage the community in their conservation efforts. Through their Flint Hills Initiative, they aim to conserve an additional 210,000 acres of tallgrass prairie in Oklahoma and Kansas over the next seven years.
