100% grass-fed
We have partnered with Bison du Nord to provide our communities with all-natural bison meat products while our young bison herd grows.
Bison du Nord is Certified 100% Grass-Fed and Animal Welfare Approved by A Greener World (AGW).
Our bison are pasture-raised and 100% grass-fed. We strive to reach the same certification as our mentors.
No hormones,
antibiotics, or finishing
Our bison do not need antibiotics and they are not given any hormones to grow bigger.
The foliage in their pen is a natural dewormer.
Bison is already sweeter than beef so there is no finishing required to sweeten bison meat.

Bison meat is lower in fat and higher in moisture than beef. This means bison will cook more quickly than beef. Since bison has very little or no marbling, it is recommended not to cook steaks or roasts past medium.
Always remember:
-
Use low cooking temperatures
- Cook slowly
- Cook less tender cuts until fork goes in easily
- Do not cook steaks and roasts past medium
