Farm to Table with Acorns Wild


Our elk currently live on over 1,000 acres of land in the frontier of the Flint. They live as close to naturally as possible and are free of steroids, hormones, or growth antibiotics. By allowing our herd to be raised humanely on open pastures, they're less taxing on the environment. We're proud to say that our herd is also highly sought after in the elk breeding world due to their genetics and way they're raised on our farm.
