Älgånäs Gård, one of Sweden's few bison farms, sought to expand its business with a "Bison Camp" experience, prompting the need for a website to manage bookings, share updates, and showcase products.
The Challenge

Älgånäs Gård is one of only six bison farms in Sweden, nestled in the forests of Värmland, near Väse. Known for its high-quality bison meat, the farm also produces its own bison burgers and sausages. The farm now plans to introduce activities and events with a new concept called "Bison Camp", requiring a new website and a refreshed visual identity to support this growth

The solution

The current communication is limited to Facebook, and without a proper online presence, the farm is unable to efficiently handle its growing business or manage bookings. With a website that can showcase its products, offer a blog for updates, and handle bookings, Älgånäs Gård would be better equipped to reach both its existing followers and new customers. The goal is to create a vibe that captures the rural, Western charm of the farm while incorporating modern elements. This website will allow Nicklas, the owner, and his team to expand their offerings by launching a "Bison Camp," where visitors can enjoy grilling bison meat, attending events, and staying overnight in Tentipi tents near the bison enclosures.

The result

To ensure easy management of the site, I chose to use Wix Studio, where the farm can handle everything from blog posts to bookings through a CMS. This allows Nicklas and his team to update content and services at any time, directly through the Wix Owner App. Now, the farm can manage their growing business with ease, all while staying true to its roots.

my role

I have handled all the work myself, making this my first freelancing experience. Working solo on the project has been an incredible opportunity for personal growth. Taking a project from start to finish has been immensely rewarding, as it allowed me to tackle and research every new challenge independently. Working closely with a customer has also been a very enjoyable and valuable experience that I have truly appreciated.
