My name is Teri Ciani. My husband Dave and I own and operate High Prairie Lodge and Outfitters located in the Black Hills of SD. I host gourmet cooking classes year-round, and during the hunting season, we host hunters from all over the world. While our hunters are with us, we offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner. During the summer months, we offer B&B lodging.
I love growing organic food in my garden. I grow fruits, vegetables, and herbs. We also have an apple orchard, and grape vineyard and harvest game and fish off our land. This gives me the opportunity to share healthy options with my family, friends, and guests.
My passion for cooking evolved through the years helping my mom cook as a young girl. My mother is a great cook but hates to bake. When I met my future husband at 14 years old his mother, Rose was a great baker and took the time to teach me.
If I have learned anything about cooking it is that there is always a way to make it better! Whenever possible, my favorite way to cook is fresh, seasonal, local, and organic.
I am writing my cookbook based on my “High Prairie Life” and will be excited to share my favorite tried and true recipes, and stories with you.
