Fire has shaped Oklahomaโ€™s landscapes for centuries โ€” and when used intentionally, it remains one of our most powerful land management tools. ๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Join OSU Extension โ€“ Tulsa County for a hands-on Prescribed Fire Workshop & Live Burn Demonstration on Wednesday, February 18, 2026, where we're partnering with the John 3:16 Mission Refuge Farm & Ranch.
