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.

Every time a batch heads to the butcher, I get the same questions. How much freezer space? What do I even do with a ham? How does the cut sheet work?

So here’s everything you need to know before you claim one - every region, the real weights, and what a half hog actually looks like in your kitchen.

We’ve got a batch heading to the butcher next week on June 18. If you’ve been thinking about it, this is the batch. Link in bio or DM us to claim a half or whole hog.

Two whole pallets of broccoli were about to be thrown away.

It’s surplus from a distribution center nearby. Good, healthy food that got passed over for the way it looks. Not the right shade of green, too small or too big. Not pretty enough for a shelf, so into the trash it would’ve gone.

Not here. Our hogs are happily working through it over the next few days, and it’s one of the ways we keep good food out of the landfill and turn it into something better. This is part of what “raised right” actually means around here - real food, low waste, nothing hidden.

Be honest, did you have any idea farms could do this? 👇

If you swiped through, you know where we stand.

Here’s a little more on why we’re talking about this right now.

There’s a provision in the current national Farm Bill, the Save Our Bacon Act, that would override state laws across the country protecting pigs from extreme confinement. It targets the handful of states that have actually passed protections, rolling back standards that keep pigs out of crates so small they can’t turn around.

Texas was never one of those states. There’s nothing here requiring any farmer to do what we do. We’ve just always believed there’s a better way, and we’ve been proving it for 10 years on land that’s been in my family for generations.

No law made us choose this. You won’t make us stop.

DM us to learn more about how we raise our animals, or to fill your freezer with pork raised the way pork should be raised.

“Free range” can legally mean a door to a concrete pad. This is what it actually looks like.

Our hens and ducks have real pasture, real grass, and apparently a lot of opinions about twice-a-day egg collection.

Happy National Egg Day — grab yours at the barn in Sealy or the Katy market Saturdays.

Here’s what you get when you invest in a half hog from Frydek.

An ice chest and three boxes, packed with chops, roasts, ribs, sausage, ground pork, and more — all custom cut to how your family actually cooks, all flash-frozen at peak freshness, all from one animal raised right here on our farm.

This is what it means to know your farmer and know your food. No mystery supply chains. No wondering what you’re feeding your family.

Once you place your order, we’ll email you a sample cut sheet with instructions so you know exactly how to fill out yours.

Drop a 🐷 or DM us if you want details on the next available batch.

I get it. This chicken is enormous!

You’ve noticed the portions are huge this round, and you’re not wrong. So what happened?

We didn’t change a thing. Same pasture rotation. Same daily moves to fresh grass. Same non-GMO feed with no corn and no soy. Same Cornish Cross chickens we always raise.

The difference? We schedule our processing dates a year in advance. This round, our birds ended up with an extra week and a half on the ground. Cornish Cross chickens are built to grow. So they did.

That just means more chicken for you.

This is the reality of small farms working with local processors. It’s not always perfectly uniform. But you know exactly what went into it, how it was raised, and why it looks the way it does — because we’ll always tell you.

That’s what it takes to get real food to your plate.

A curious nose at the fence. Chickens racing for fresh grass. The way the animals settle in at the end of the day.

Farm life isn’t always easy or glamorous, but these little moments have a way of slowing us down and reminding us why we do it.

We have some new faces at the farm! A bull calf and a heifer calf. Mama had them on her own without intervention.
