Our buffalo graze on over 50 acres while the rest of the farm is used for growing grass that is stored as hay for them to eat during the winter months. At various times of the year the buffalo must be brought in for veterinary purposes. To do so, the buffalo are handled through an elaborate corral system consisting of steel piping holding pens, to smaller steel cages, and then a clamping system that literally holds the animal in steel casing until they are released to another series of pens and back to the fields with much relief on their part and ours!
To assist commercial growers, the National Bison Association was formed in 1995. Today the NBA has 2400 members in all 50 states. Red Run Farm is a member of the National and Eastern Bison Association.
Buffalo has the rare quality of being low-fat but juicy. The taste is succulent, sweet and not at all gamey. There is no extra work to prepare or season it. It is just as easy as cooking beef. Whether you grill a burger or just fry it in a pan, there is no fat left over, no shrinkage, just red juicy meat!
A Healthier Choice. Buffalo or Bison, as it is often called, is lower in cholesterol, fat and calories than skinless chicken. For heart patients, doctors recommend they eat buffalo as an alternative to other meat.
A buffalo can run 35 mph for 4-5 hours straight. Their windpipe and heart are twice the size of cattle. Even though a buffalo can weight more than a ton, it can jump a 6 foot high fence from a 20 ft. running start. The buffalo has only one blood type compared to cattle that have 50, and is one of the only animals that has not been detected to have cancer.
By 1893 there were sadly only 1100 remaining, as the buffalo was destroyed as man settled the west. Today there are over half a million. Here at Red Run we are working to help preserve this majestic national animal. They are cared for with respect, and carefully bred each year to maintain the herd.

Our tour begins at the barn with a short history of the American Bison, more commonly called buffalo. After that we will view the holding pens where we work the animals and give them shots and do other medical procedures.
Hay is harvested on the farm 4 times a year and stored to be used throughout the year. Nearby are the pastures where we feed and graze our 60 buffalo - bulls, heifers and calves.
It’s always exciting if we get to see them stampede—even for a few minutes. They can run 30 miles per hour and on the plains that might be for 8 hours straight.
As we walk back to the barn, you can enjoy the beautiful setting overlooking hundreds of acres of hilly farm land. Our tour ends in our Amish crafted barn featuring two story beamed ceilings, fireplace and Native American artifacts—a great place for photos. Here you can also purchase our healthy and delicious buffalo (bison) meat.
