We didn’t want to just BUY food. We wanted to know we could produce it. 🐥 🐓 🍗

There’s nothing wrong with grocery stores. We still use them.

For us, this was never about trying to prove we could do everything ourselves.

It was about learning a skill that gave our family another option.

Could we take day-old chicks, raise them well, process them ourselves, and put enough chicken in the freezer to feed our family?

Could we do it again next year?
And the year after that?

That was the part that mattered.
Because once you learn how to produce some of your own food, you’re not just filling a freezer.

You’re building capability.
You’re teaching your kids where food actually comes from.
You’re creating a system your family can come back to again and again.

And that’s exactly what raising meat birds became for us.

You can watch every chicken-processing video on the internet and still get to processing day thinking:

“Okay... but what if I do something wrong?”

Because the fear usually isn’t just the act of processing.

👉🏼It’s the unknown.

What if dispatch doesn’t go perfectly?
What if you don’t know what comes next?
What if something looks different than it did in the video you watched?
What if you make a mistake?

That’s why we don’t just teach individual processing steps inside The Farm To Freezer Method™.

🔹 We show you the entire process.
🔹 How to set up your processing area.
🔹 How each station flows into the next.
🔹 How to dispatch, scald, pluck, eviscerate, chill and package.
🔹 And what to do when things don’t go exactly as planned.

Processing still has a learning curve.
But guessing shouldn’t be part of it.

And I should warn you…it may be messy 😅.

We didn’t build a system because it sounded impressive.

We built it because we had 50 birds in our yard, a baby at home, and no plan.

That year forced us to figure it out. Slowly. Messily.
With a lot of “gahhhs.”

But it also forced us to understand the why behind every step.

And that’s the difference!!

We don’t just teach how to process chickens.

We teach how to build a repeatable system that fits your real life. (Because let’s be honest, life is crazy busy!!)

So when processing day comes, you’re confident and not guessing!

If you don’t want to learn the hard way like we did…

If you’ve ever tried to piece together chicken processing gear from random tools and YouTube guesses… you already know how chaotic that can feel.

After 13 years of raising and processing 200+ birds a year, here’s what we actually use to make processing day fast, clean, and totally doable:

Kill cones (humane + efficient)

Scalder (consistent temps = fewer missed feathers)

Plucker (saves HOURS — worth every penny)

Chill tank (food safety matters)

And yes, a rinse + packing setup that doesn’t involve your kitchen table

This is the exact system we use and what we rent out locally to other backyard farmers.

Want our full setup?

And trust me the right tools don’t just make it easier, they make it sustainable.

Chicken processing is one of those things that’s hard to understand until you see the whole day in motion.

No music.
No voiceover.
No polished edit.

Just the real sounds, the real workflow, and the way our family moves through processing day together.

This is what raising your own food actually looks like.

The Farm To Freezer Method™ wasn’t something we sat down and invented one day.

It was built season by season. From figuring out how many birds to raise…
to learning what worked in the brooder…
to adjusting feed, housing, and daily care…
to finally creating a processing flow that made the entire day feel manageable and repeatable.

Every mistake taught us something.

Every season helped us simplify.

And over time, all of those little lessons turned into a complete system we could follow year after year.

That’s how The Farm To Freezer Method™ was born.

It’s the process we wish we had when we were first trying to figure out how to get from day-old chicks to a freezer full of chicken.

And now we get to hand that process to you.

I wouldn’t start by shopping for a plucker.

I’d go in this order:

1. Space
How many birds can I realistically raise at once?

2. Housing
Where will they brood and where will they live once they’re bigger?

3. Bird count
Based on that space, what’s a realistic first batch?

4. Processing
Am I doing it myself? Who will help? Where will it happen?

5. Equipment
What do I actually need to buy, borrow, or rent?

THEN start figuring out your the smaller details.

This is exactly why the off-season is valuable: you can make these decisions one at a time instead of trying to solve everything while chicks are already growing.

If you need help figuring out these starting places, comment “GUIDE” and I’ll send you our free guide to help you get planning your season!
