​Every spring, we order chicks from the hatchery and raise pastured broiler chickens. They have their own mobile chicken coops which are opened at dawn and closed each night because owls and raccoons like our chicken, too. The birds cruise the pasture every day and spend their three month lives pecking, scratching, and busily scurrying about like...chickens. The bugs they find are supplemented with an organic grain mixture from crops we grow on our farm. The result of all this effort is a exceptionally tasty nutritious chicken that has had a long summer to love life, green grass and sunshine.
​
We primarily pasture Red Ranger broiler chickens with some traditional Cornish Cross's mixed in as well. Red Rangers provide a slower growing bird that thrives on a pasture and foraging setup. The longer growing period and pastured setting produces a moist, flavorful bird. If you have ever fried, roasted, or barbecued a real home-grown, free-range chicken, you know what a delicacy it is. Unlike factory farmed birds, our chickens spend all day every day outside eating bugs and looking for ways to get into trouble. They are fed a certified organic feed that we mix ourselves from crops grown on our farm. These chickens are of the highest quality and will grace just a few select ovens.
