Frydek Heritage Farm

Frydek Heritage Farm Frydek Heritage Farm raises free range eggs, pastured chicken and heritage pork.

We strive to provide healthy, nutritious food by using rotational grazing techniques that keep the pastures healthy. Chris and Julie Lowe moved from Austin to a small Czech community 50 miles west of Houston when they purchased Julie's Grandparents farm in Frydek, Texas. Frydek Heritage Farm strives to produce healthy and wholesome food for our surrounding areas including Houston, Austin and Colle

ge Station. The farm is managed using rotational grazing techniques that keep the pastures healthy and more nutritious for the livestock. Because this process aerates and fertilizes the meadows at the farm, the farm ecosystem thrives without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

What dinner looks like at the farmer’s house.

Ratatouille from Kmiec Farm vegetables, alongside oven roasted boneless chicken thighs seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic and paprika.

The ratatouille is America's Test Kitchen Walkaway Ratatouille. The name is accurate - I was able to get the daily collection of around 200 eggs from the chickens while it was in the oven. Most of the flavor comes from the vegetables collapsing slowly instead of anything you do to them.

What’s your walk away dinner? The one you can get in the oven and then go handle something else.

Wednesday pep talk from the field: let’s get after the rest of this week like our hogs are going at these overgrown weeds. They’ll have this section cleared by Friday.

Drop a 💪 if you’re getting after it too.

Ground pork can be an overlooked ingredient. It shouldn’t be. This rice noodle bowl came together with the pork, scallions, noodles, and a sauce that does most of the work. Quick pickled cucumbers in rice vinegar on top.

Tundra takes his job seriously. Perimeter monitored. Squirrels logged. Amazon van escorted to the property line at speed.

The part he doesn’t mention in the interview: coyotes, foxes, raccoons, bobcats. He and the other two Great Pyrenees are why the chickens and other animals get to live outside.

Y’all, these pork steaks were so good. Brown sugar rub, balsamic fig glaze, and a bright chimichurri to cut through the richness.

Seared them in a cast iron skillet, finished in the oven, then spooned the glaze and chimichurri over the top right before serving. Our heritage pork steaks hold up beautifully to a hard sear.

Coffee’s hot. The grass is happy from last week’s rains. It’s time to go be a radioactive unicorn of happiness!

Y’all have been asking why eggs sold out on the website, and why we (and every other vendor) were cleaned out at market this weekend. Short answer: the hens are on strike 😅 Longer answer: it’s biology.

When the heat index climbs over 100°, a hen’s body has to focus on staying cool, not making eggs. They don’t have sweat glands, so they’re limited to radiating heat off their combs and wattles, holding their wings away from their bodies, and just plain eating less (digestion generates heat, so their appetite drops too). Less food in means fewer nutrients available to build an egg.

We keep them shaded, keep cool water and electrolytes coming, but even a happy, healthy hen slows down in weather like this. It’s just the natural rhythm of hens on pasture; egg season ebbs and flows same as any other crop.

Follow along if you want more of this, real food doesn’t run on a schedule, and there’s always a reason behind it.

Thanks for sticking with us through the summer slowdown.
