Filming on Cyrus Bison Ranches Bonnyville Alberta Canada. NATIVE | The Prodigies of an Icon isn’t just about the bison, it’s a story about the people raising and supporting the bison. Enjoy some shots of life on the farm in Canada! Those bison wool gloves, neck gators, beanies (or toque) are partially made right here in Alberta Canada. Check out how they separate the bison down wool from the bison hair.
Filming crew includes Josh Dillard with DCM Films
Ever wonder where those The Buffalo Wool Co socks come from? Well, part of the fiber process starts here… in Canada. Cyrus Bison operates a VERY unique machine that separates the wool and begins the fiber processing in Bonnyville Alberta Canada. Nathaniel’s hat, Charlies beanie & gator, and Josh and Charlie’s fingerless gloves are all made of this amazingly warm bison fiber.
NATIVE | The Prodigies of an Icon tells the story of bison AS WELL AS the stories of those who work daily to keep them healthy and those who economically sustain them through providing exceptional products and foods. That can be a difficult task during “spring time” in Alberta Canada. I’ve never spent so much time digging out of snow just to get some hay! (Did I mention it’s spring?)
