Raised on living pasture between rows of chestnut trees. Two breeds, non-GMO feed, no antibiotics — ever.
Our chickens aren't just pasture-raised — they're part of a working farm ecosystem.
Our birds live in mobile chicken tractors — open-bottom shelters on wheels moved through the orchard daily. Every day they're on fresh ground, fresh grass, and fresh bugs.
The tractors move in between the rows of chestnut trees on our 110-acre farm. The chickens fertilize the soil, scratch out weeds, and eat pests — the trees provide shade and shelter. Regenerative agriculture in practice.
The pasture is a mix of Tall Fescue, Rye grass, and Durano clover — chosen for nutrition and year-round coverage. The birds forage freely alongside their Tanner Mills Naturecrest non-GMO feed.
We raise Cornish Cross and Freedom Rangers side by side — same pasture, same care, different eating experiences.
The classic American broiler. Broad-breasted, tender, and fast-growing — harvested at around 8 weeks. Great yield, familiar flavor, excellent for roasting or grilling.
A heritage-style broiler built for the pasture. More active, slower-growing (9–10 weeks), and known for a richer, deeper flavor. Thinner skin, firmer texture — the kind of chicken that tastes like chicken used to taste.
Our first year. We're raising ~600 birds across multiple batches — 300 Cornish Cross, 300 Freedom Rangers.
