Sacred Storm Buffalo Butcher Shop & Market is a Native-led shop in Rapid City, South Dakota that practices a “birth-to-table” approach to food production. It specializes in respectfully harvested, locally raised, grass-fed bison. They offer a wide range of meat products from premium cuts and traditional organs to jerky. You will also find Native-American-made goods, buffalo tallow-based skincare products, and a variety of natural wellness products.

Buffalo meat sold at the shop come from animals that are raised on their traditional prairie home. They graze freely on open grasslands and are never subjected to trucking or being pushed through a slaughter house. This results in healthier animals and higher-quality meat.

More than just a place to buy meat and Native-made goods, the shop is part of a larger workforce development initiative that is grounded in traditional Lakota values. Young people are taught work skills, ecological stewardship, a way to reclaim food sovereignty, and are shown a path to deepen cultural connections.
