Buffalo Horn Ranch Mother’s Day
Every year Buffalo Horn Ranch – our bison supplier – hosts a wonderful opportunity to visit their farm and see this year’s crop of bison calves. It really is quite something to see these new ones jumping around in the tall grass on a warm June afternoon. You also get a chance to meet Peter and Judy and learn more about their commitment to bison and bringing their amazing meat to market. I will be tagging these new ones later in the fall and some of them will start showing up on Forage menus in a few years. I know the experience will give you a sense of confidence in supporting and enjoying their farm and their bison. This year the event is on Saturday, June 22nd 2PM to 5PM on their farm about 15 minutes West of Olds near Eagle Hill. Make a day of it and enjoy the back roads for central Alberta. It’s beautiful back there this time of year! You can get more information and RSVP on their website.
