Info

Wild Echo Bison Ranch is a 480 acre ranch of grassy meadows, aspen groves, and forested hillsides. It is ecologically managed for our bison, and for the current resident wildlife. Our goal is to supply quality bison meat while maintaining an environmentally friendly wildlife sanctuary on the ranch.

We believe that bison should live in a clean environment and have room to roam without intensive human interference. We don't treat them with pesticides, hormones, or antibiotics, and they are not branded, dehorned, or neutered. We let the mothers decide when to wean their calves and the bison remain a cohesive herd of mixed ages and sexes year long. Within the limits of our property, we keep them as naturally as possible. During the growing season, they feed on a variety of mountain grasses and in winter they are supplemented with quality local hay.

Our bison provide flavorful, quality meat without the pesticides, hormones, antibiotics and grain associated with corporate agriculture. Remarkably, the real benefit of raising quality meat in an ecologically friendly way is that one gets naturally healthy and happy animals, too.

We sell our meat to the Real Food Store in Helena, MT, as well as to individuals. We usually sell the meat as young bison quarters (70 to 90 lbs of meat when cut, wrapped and frozen), although we will occasionally sell by the pound. All quarters have equal proportions of steaks, roasts, burger, etc.

We will deliver to Helena or Bozeman, or folks can come to the ranch to pick up their meat. For those who buy a whole animal, skull and hide are available at no extra cost. Call or email for prices.
