Each spring, the Flint Hills of Kansas come alive with a unique and vital tradition—prescribed pasture burning. These controlled burns are essential for maintaining the region's native tallgrass prairie, controlling invasive species, and improving grazing conditions for cattle.For landowners, this marks the start of cattle grazing season—a time when healthy pastures mean thriving herds and productive land. Whether you're managing a working ranch or considering investing in Flint Hills property, now is the time to understand the land's rhythm and the benefits it brings. For local spectators, catching a pasture burn at dusk, over a pond or lake, or during a full moon is a breathtaking experience.
