truly pastured
Pastured Poultry = chickens that live outside in a natural habitat (on grass, in the fresh
air and sunshine with plenty of space to roam and forage). By rotating the chickens to
fresh pasture every single day, pasture-raised chicken is not only healthy and delicious
but also goes beyond sustainability to rebuild healthy, regenerative soils and
grasslands.
The differences between our chicken and conventionally raised chicken are numerous.
Our farms use the term “Always Outside” to note the fact that their chickens don’t just
have ambiguous “access to pasture,” but actually live outside on pasture 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week. Instead of debeaking the chicks, our birds use their beaks and
talons to peck and scratch for bugs, worms, grasses, seeds, and more. Instead of using
antibiotics to fight disease within the flock, our farms use a healthy environment of
pasture, sunshine, fresh air, and space to prevent sickness. Instead of marketing
vegetarian-fed chicken (chickens are not vegetarians), we want chickens to eat as many
bugs and worms as possible.
