Pasture to Plate
Uncomparable protein raised with passion!
Breeding/Raising
Our animals are bred and born on one of our two partnering ranches, Buffalo Ridge Farm and Blackfish Bison Ranch. Each location is operated under the same practices and principles. Our animals are bred, born, raised, and harvested on the grounds they have known as home for the entirety of their life.
Harvesting
Humane and ethical harvesting is important to us! There are so many "hoops to jump through" to provide a field-harvested protein under USDA inspection. But, our animals and your satisfaction as our customers motivate us to make every jump necessary. We firmly believe, based on our research, that stressed animals produce a lesser quality and tasting protein. Frankly, we work hard to raise our buffalo as wild and naturally as possible to then, in the last moments of that animal's life, have that work ruined due to stress or fear.
Instead, we evaluate each animal for consideration of harvesting. Based on behavior, attitude, or overall performance among the herds. Once an animal is selected for harvest, it is dispatched on our grounds and prepared for processing at a local processor.
Packaging and Sales
Once aged, our processor custom cuts and packages our proteins in individual heavy mil chamber-sealed bags and flash freezes the items. The sales of our cuts are both retail and wholesale. For your convenience, we provide online purchasing for delivery or local pick-up at one of our two locations in Greeneville Tennessee, or Winchester Kentucky.
