Audubon Conservation Ranching
"Working lands represent one of the best hopes for conservation. Audubon's Conservation Ranching Program honors the ranchers who are stewards of vast open spaces with a market based strategy that benefits landowners and birds alike."
Corner Post Meats and the Audubon Rockies are working together on this 1500 acre sanctuary to conserve and promote wildlife habitat through sustainable grazing practices. That's right, using agriculture to promote conservation, not compete with it. The 1500 acre Kiowa Creek Ranch & Sanctuary in Black Forest was passed on to the National Audubon Society to protect it from the encroaching development. The National Audubon Society needed to find a way to preserve and improve the ranch's habitat while also generating revenue. Enter Corner Post Meats and their sustainable grazing practices. Every day on the ranch they are recreating much of what large herds of bison and fire used to do to build our soils since time began. Corner Post Meats uses the churning hooves of cattle, the tilling noses of pigs, and the fertilization from chickens, to bring an inherently natural cycle of disturbance and growth to the landscape and soil.

"The story of our meat begins with healthy soils which in turn produce more vibrant, hearty and nutritious plants. A diverse diet of native-range forage is the key ingredient that determine the flavor and quality cuts of meat. Our Animals live a natural life – FREE of vaccinations, chemical dewormers, antibiotics, and growth hormones. We avoid the use chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides or any other “cides.” Grass finished meats in general tend to be high in Vitamin E, Beta Carotene, CLA’s and Omega 3 fatty acids.
