Description
S. B. Farms is located near the center of the Delmarva Peninsula on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. We are approximately one and one half-hours southeast of Washington D. C. and Baltimore, MD. and two hours south of Philadelphia, PA. An average of 38 inches of rainfall per year provides lush green pastures on which to produce our Bison and hence our low fat, nutritional red meat with its rich flavor.
The ranch is locally owned and operated by the Edwards family. Care is taken to use as many agricultural “Best Management Practices” as possible to not only provide a safe and healthy environment for the Bison, but to also control nutrient and soil runoff into the Choptank River and thence the Chesapeake Bay. The Edwards family has been an active member of the Chesapeake Bay’s “Choptank Tributary Strategies Team” since its inception. The ranch uses rotational grazing and has established pastures which include native warm-season grasses.
The Bison are provided the best of care and are raised without the use of antibiotics, growth stimulants or hormones. They are primarily left to graze the adequate pastures, with each pasture having its own fresh water source. The Bison cows have been carefully selected from established, renowned herds, many of them having placed first, second or third in the East’s premiere Bison Show and Sale.
