We have found ourselves with the growing movement of people, probably like you, who seek to live a different life.  For some, it is simpler, greener and more organic.  For others, it’s rediscovering memories of a rural childhood.  Whichever is the case for you, we are glad you're here and hope we can help you and your family by providing healthy food choices, information on sustainable food and a few funny stories along the way.

                             Our Values
                            Local Sustainable Farming  &
                                  Welfare of Our Birds 

Our commitment is to provide a poultry product that is high in protein and low in fat.  Where you can taste the difference between a commercial bird and a heritage bird.  We are committed to local poultry farming that promotes and encourages sustainability. This is defined by selling our poultry products locally, by raising poultry that can reproduce, and is not dependent on “outside breed resources". We are committed to preserving genetics that are reproducible on the local farm.
Our welfare standards for our birds are that they are allowed to behave naturally, ensure social interaction, comfort, physical and psychological well being. Thus allowing them to grow at a natural rate which means they don’t mature until 16-22 weeks instead of 5-8 weeks as that of a commercial bird. Within our standards we believe that genetics play a very significant role in the welfare of all breeds of poultry; the best welfare for the bird is for them to be standard bred. As a farm with the SUSTAINABLE POULTRY NETWORK, we are distinguished by a humane and conscientious attitude toward the birds related to housing and husbandry.

 Why Our Poultry Is So Tasty
Our chickens and turkeys taste so good because they are raised outside on pasture rather than in crowded poultry houses. Our poultry is Free- Range poultry. This means, they have housing but are allowed to roam outside during the day and forage for food to supplement the food and water we already provide them. We provide them with constant access to a natural diet while enjoying plenty of fresh air and sunshine. We allow our chickens to mature at their natural pace. We do not use artificial growth hormones; do not feed meat or bone meal; and do not use antibiotics. The meat is 21% higher in protein and 22% lower in fat per serving. Therefore, offering you an outstanding taste for a healthy meal.

Some people probably wonder why we raise free range chickens instead of just keeping them in a coop.
It is the way they were intended to be raised and is the humane way to treat the birds.
The other reason is that the eggs are much healthier with a deep yellow yolk than the regular store bought eggs.


A Definition of Free-Range Chicken
Herman Beck-Chenoweth re-introduced the free-range system that was the most popular way to raise poultry in the U.S. from the 1930's through the 1960's. The system allows birds to range freely during the day and be safely sequestered on secure skid houses over night. The addition of a guard animal, such as an Komondor or Anotolian Shepherd dog, controls predators. In the Modern American Free-Range Poultry Production System, birds are much less crowded and freer to practice normal bird behaviour than in any other pasture-based system.

Although frequently listed as a "pasture" method, free-"range" refers to the length of the forage. Cows graze "pasture" which is forage over six inches long. "Range" refers to short forage of 2-4 inches. Free-range is a very sustainable production system that improves the farmer's soil and produces poultry with strong bones and meat with good "mouthfeel". Combined with proper aging after slaughter, the meat is tender and flavorful.
