Our Story

Struisvogel Ranch

  1. 2010 Spent a year in South Africa

    Visited some ostrich farms. Ate some ostrich meat. We were sold.

    Came back to Ontario with the idea to start our own Ostrich Ranch.

  2. 2020 Bought our first ostriches

    Started with chicks and a few breeders

    Bought more breeders, then incubators, hatchers, heat lamps, built a second barn. We were set to grow.

  3. 2022 Opened up our Ranch Store

    Started our "Ostrich Walks" Self-Guided Tours

    School tours, private tours, online meat sales across Ontario.

  4. Today

    Growing our flock

    We are focused on growing our flock to reach demand. We also are focused on sustainability through using all the byproducts of ostrich (leather, feathers, oil, etc.)

  5. Next

    Looking ahead

    We look forward to continuing to be a popular destination in Prince Edward County and providing a source of sustainable red meat for Ontario.


In 2011, Caleb (from Frankford) and Brittany (from Ennismore) planted their roots in Prince Edward County. Their family has grown quite a bit since then—now including three wonderful kids and an entire ranch of curious ostriches.
