Absolutely awesome, pasture-raised, organic chickens! Our chickens are raised on fast growing grasses and clovers in our chicken tractors. We move them to fresh, organically-tended pasture twice a day to ensure they're happy and healthy. They're given free choice, organic, soy-free feed. They have fresh air and clean water at all times. They live well and die with respect.
They tend to get a bit big--that's an 10.27 pound chicken in that photo of Liz! Though for the 2018 season we're going to be trying for a few earlier harvests for those who really like little fryers. But not to worry for all our returning customers, we'll still grow out the big guys!

Real. Good. Chicken.
Please adjust the quantity to reflect how many chickens you'd like to reserve. And please indicate for which harvest date you'd like to reserve birds. And remember, they come flash frozen and perfect for stocking up your freezer!
The balance will be due upon pick up. We sell our chickens for $4.50-$5.00 a pound. So, for example, say you reserve one chicken and it happens to be 4 pounds, so you pay $10.00 up front. That means $5 x 4lbs = $20.00 - $10.00(deposit)* = $10.00 on pick up day!
Fryers are $5.00/lb and Roasters are 4.50/lb We will also have giblets and feet for those who are interested.
We choose to grow birds that are slower growing than the industry standard, super-fast-maturing breeds. We make this choice because of ethical reasons--our birds are more mobile, have better feather coverage, are more resilient, and do not have the heart and leg deformities common among standard, fast-maturing meat breeds. They do take a bit longer to mature, so they're a bit more expensive, but their quality of life is so much better! These birds are healthy, plump, and meaty. Did I mention tender and juicy? Oh man, they're so delicious!
Healthy food comes from healthy animals and plants.
*Cash or Check reservations are $10 each. The online price is higher to cover web fees. Unfortunately, the $2.00 fee cannot contribute to the balance payment. You're most welcome to send a check!
