what we offer

Cornish cross broiler chickens

Our meat chickens are the Cornish Cross Broilers. They go out in portable pens onto pasture at 3 weeks of age, and then are on pasture for 5 weeks. During this time, they are fed certified organic feed along with grass for supplement of vitamins which go into the meat. We move the portable chicken pens 1-2 times each day, every day, to ensure fresh grass and a clean-living area. The pens spacious pens provide the chickens with a lot of fresh air and sunshine, also shade and cover from the weather elements.

We move our Turkeys weekly in a very spacious portable electric netting enclosure along with their portable roost.
