| Indian Creek Bison Ranch is owned and operated by the Jerry and Linda Schmidt, established in 1989. Indian Creek Bison Ranch is located in the heart of Kansas about 20 minutes west of Wichita, Kansas on highway 96. The Schmidt family have been involved in agriculture since the nineteen-thirties. Jerry was raised in the agricultural business and started raising and breeding bison in 1981. |
| It started as an idea and concept born out of love of nature and the west. Jerry Schmidt graduated with a degree in forestry from Kansas State University. Throughout his youth Jerry developed an appreciation for the wilderness and the bison that roamed across this nation. |
| Jerry went about the research required to develop the business plan needed to set the idea into motion. They talked to other bison producers about how they raised their buffalo. They visited many bison ranches to check out their handling facilities, working pens, corrals and fences. They joined the Kansas State Buffalo Associations and has been held several appointed offices including President for several terms. |
| Our bison ranching philosophy remains the same now as it was then. We believe in Conservation, preservation, maintaining the natural conditions of the ranch, encouraging bio-diversity and developing a quality, diverse, and naturally strong bison herd. |
