St. Louis, MO – Roeslein Renewables today announced the season one premiere of Prairie Prophets, an original video series debuting on RFD-TV on April 7, 2026, at 8:00 PM CST. The series explores the intersection of agriculture, conservation, and renewable energy across America’s working landscapes.
Prairie Prophets brings viewers into the field alongside farmers, conservationists, and industry leaders who are advancing regenerative land management practices while contributing to a more sustainable energy future. Through compelling storytelling and on-the-ground perspectives, the series highlights how prairie restoration and biomass utilization can deliver economic and environmental benefits at scale.
The series is executive produced by Rudi Roeslein, Founder and Chairman of Roeslein and Associates, whose vision for integrating native ecosystems with renewable energy systems serves as the foundation for the project.
“Prairie Prophets is about showcasing what’s possible when we align agriculture, conservation, and energy production,” said Roeslein. “This series gives a voice to the people leading that change on the land and demonstrates a model for restoring ecological balance while strengthening rural economies.”
The series is hosted, written, and produced by Brandon Butler, an award-winning communicator known for his work in conservation and outdoor storytelling. Direction, editing, and production are led by Nathaniel Maddux of Slate + Glass, with Connor Mobley serving as camera operator. Production support is provided by Adam Voight and Jeff Blumer.
