About Us

In 1996, ten National Bison Association members, yearning for a regional voice, met in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Their vision was to create the Eastern Bison Association, tailored for producers like them. The industry boomed, and the EBA thrived, nurturing connections through seminars, events, and the annual show and sale which all bring bison ranchers together to learn and share skills to help their herds and businesses thrive.
