ABOUT
Kent Fuller Air Station Prairie
The Kent Fuller Air Station Prairie is a 32-acre remnant of the tallgrass prairie that once stretched for millions of square miles across much of North America. Here you can experience what northern Illinois was like during pre-settlement conditions and view native vegetation close-up through our teaching gardens and walking paths. The 3,000 square foot Evelyn Pease Tyner Interpretive Center serves as a showcase for green technology, and has been certified as LEED Platinum by the U.S. Green Building Council.

FUN FACTS
One single tree can provide the oxygen required for two human beings and over 8,000 sheets of paper. Trees can also clean the soil and air by absorbing harmful pollutants. So what have you done for a tree lately? Nature centers and state parks provide a hands-on environment to discover facts about native plants and animals, as well as ways to preserve these natural resources.
