Leroy & Cindy Fricke
Farmer Owners,
Since 1989

Located in Central Wisconsin at Cherokee, just four miles east of Colby, home of the world famous Colby Cheese, you will find our 440-acre bison farm. What began as an alternative to dairy farming is now a successful bison business. With the purchase of our first bison in 1989, Cherokee Bison Farms is now home to roughly 100 head of pure-bred American Bison. The herd topped out at about 350 head until we started downsizing in 2015.

Choosing to work with bison was easy. We wanted to produce an alternative meat that health conscious consumers would love. Plus, we immediately fell in love with the animals themselves. They are beautiful, intelligent and very resourceful. Our bison are naturally raised. Our animals are on a feed program that includes rotational grazing and supplement feeding with baled hay, haylage, minerals and vitamins. We do raise all of our own feeds and do not import any commercial feeds or use artificial additives or bone/bloodmeal components. Naturally raised and NO grain-finishing here.

The end result is a wonderfully lean, delicious meat. Nothing artificial is added to our meat. No beef, pork or other additives go into any of our products. We are 100% pure American Bison - USDA and/or Wisconsin State Inspected.
