Calf Days
Celebrate spring June 14, 2014, during Calf Day at Cook’s Bison Ranch, 5645 East 600 South, Wolcottville, Indiana.
The event began in 2001 and has grown every year since as visitors come to celebrate the season and the birth of new calves.
Of course, the bison which live on this ranch year round are the main attraction. Free wagon rides will take guests out to watch them and feed them. The itinerary for the day includes demonstrations on bison meat cooking, hair spinning, and the delights of smoked jerky.
Events start at 10 a.m. and include musical entertainment, story-telling, wagon rides, cooking demonstrations, games for the kids, and, of course, lots of great food.
The event raises money to support a mission to the Pine Ridge and Rosebud Native American eservations. There is no entrance fee, but donations are accepted.
If you can’t make it on June 14, Road Trips Foodies: open tours are conducted most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m,. with tours departing on the hour. Open tours run from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
