CHICKEN
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.

Our pigs are raised in our barns having the pasture brought to them, using a sickle we cut loads and loads of different grasses and give it to the pigs to eat. In our barns we use deep bedding methods to provide warmth in the winter months and excellent garden compost, we do not have our animals on concrete. Our pigs have plenty of space in our barn stalls to play, burrow and sleep. The stalls have large windows for sunlight and constant fresh air & our large sliding barn doors are kept open to have a good breeze cool them in the summer months. We have very happy healthy hogs.
