Our 1/2 lb. package of bison fibre contains fibre that can't be used for spinning wool (too coarse, too short) so we put in a pack for you to spread around your local outdoors. Bison ranchers hold the key to bringing biodiversity back to the prairie & bison fibre is one part of that story! Birds, small animals, and insects use this fibre to make their nests. Bring biodiversity back to your area by spreading small amounts on the ground or in tree nooks.

Reintroducing bison -- a formerly dominant grazer -- doubles plant diversity in a tallgrass prairie. Other benefits of bison on the grasslands include increasing drought resistance of the grasslands and biodiversity of the prairie ecology. Research reports that birds also use bison fur to line their nests, while other birds lived off insects that accumulate on bison fur

When animals use bison fibre to line their nests - such as those that nest on the ground - the scent of the buffalo masks the scent of their babies in their nests.

Bison, a keystone species of the North American prairie grasslands environment, are one way in which regenerative agriculture can be actioned on ranches.
