The Great Plains Nature Center sitting smack dab in the middle of the Chisholm Creek Park is like getting out into the natural prairie without having to leave Wichita. This 282 acres with 2 1/2 miles of paved trails is FREE to the public and open 7 days a week while the Nature Center provides educational experiences for all ages. 

We were fortunate enough to sit down with Amanda Alessi - Director of the Great Plains Nature Center so she could walk us through a little history of the center as well as what they are currently up to.  It was a very educational experience and we hope you all enjoy!
