**Raised without questionable drugs, chemicals or growth hormones.  In fact, federal regulations prohibit the use of growth hormones in bison, as well as antibiotics administered to promote growth.  The National Bison Association Code of Ethics also binds members to uphold the commitment to keeping bison truly “all natural.”  We are an active member of the National Bison Association and adhere to their guidelines.
