Humane Field Harvest
Fort Peck Buffalo Harvest
More good happening on the prairie and with our Native American sourcing partners! Colton talks about our harvest teams recent visit to Fort Peck.
Meet Our Sourcing Partners
We often get the question, “Do all of the animals you harvest come from your ranch?” The answer is no, but the ranchers that we source from, have the same standards in animal husbandry and manage their rangeland for conservation and ecological bio-diversity.
How and Why: Humane Field Harvest
Note to readers: As we seek to know more about where our food comes from and how it is raised, it is perhaps equally important to know how it dies. It may even be our responsibility. If you'd rather not see, and are okay with just the knowing, you may want to stop reading here. Although the photos are not graphic they offer transparency to the process of Wild Idea’s humane field harvest.
The Strenuous Life
We harvested buffalo just north of the small southwestern North Dakota town of Bowman. It was our first time harvesting in North Dakota, and we drove up the night before to meet the Director of North Dakota’s Meat Inspection Program and her Senior Inspector.
