WELCOME

Hello!

My name is Tom Attwater, and I’m co-directing a short documentary film called Prairiewood, alongside Alaskan photographer Nathaniel Wilder. Our film will highlight the urgent efforts to secure Prairiewood as a publicly accessible refuge.

The Tallgrass Prairie is one of North America’s most endangered ecosystems. Once stretching from Texas to Canada, less than 4% of it remains today. At the heart of Kansas’ Flint Hills, Kail and Beck Katzenmeier have spent decades restoring and protecting a rare sanctuary of untouched prairie. Their fight is not just about conservation; it’s about securing a future where this landscape remains wild and accessible for generations to come.

To learn more about the project, our goals, and how you can be part of this project, please take a moment to review our pitch deck.

Thank you for your time and consideration!

Tom
