FAQS

You’ve got questions, and we’ve got the answers!

Pastured raised means the birds are raised on the grass, with fresh air, sunlight, and with plenty of space to move around freely. Our birds are raised in Chicken Tractors. These birds are our premium product and you won’t be disappointed with the taste! 

Free range means that the bird is raised in a barn with access to the outside and sunlight. We never cage our birds and ensure that they have plenty of space to move around freely. It is sold at a lower price point but trust us you will taste the difference from the grocery store. 

The APPPA (American Pastured Poultry Producers Association) says that pasture raised birds are simply healthier. They tend to be higher in iron, higher in Omega 3, Lower Omega 6:3 ratio and higher in antioxidants. Simply put, it’s better for you! It tastes better too, but don’t take our word for it, try it out!

We spent a long time sourcing the right feed to feed our chickens. We finally found one that met our standards, it’s a Non-GMO, Soy free, corn free feed that we LOVE. Our pasture birds also love to eat lots of bugs they forage for in their tractors outside. We have also found they LOVE kale, and treat them with it every chance we can. 

No, we do not vaccinate our birds. They don’t receive anything that nature hasn’t provided. 

We don’t put any stock on the term Organic. We believe it’s simply a marketing tool to help you feel better about buying that product. That’s why we haven’t paid the hefty price to be labeled Organic, we know our bird is better than Organic and we don’t need the label to prove it, just try it out!
