A myth. Once apon a time the Bird of Paradise graced the skies. They were beautiful birds much admired, but their beauty puffed up their egos making them arrogant and selfish. One day they saw a field of ripe corn and swooped down and ate it all up. The king summoned them to his court and reprImanded them saying the corn was there to share with everyone. He told them if they ever did that again he would discipline them severley. A few years went buy and their hearts puffed up with all the admiration, and they forgot others and ate all the corn again. Once again summoned to the Kings court he told them that they would always be admired but would never fly again as he was putting their feet in the ground. Hence the beautiful strelitzia or bird of paradise flower.. Today we admire them and occasionally if we look hard we can see a tear drop down the side of their face, perhaps reminding them of the days they flew. Perhaps in the next kingdom they will fly again. But remember the birds sacrifice benefits us all, the droplets are rich in nectar attracting bees,birds and other pollinators, without which we would have no food, as they pollinate our plants and veg. Lets consider this the next time we use herbicides in our gardens.

What’s the difference between our pastured chicken and store-bought?

Start with the color — deep, rich and real. That’s from sunshine, grass, and bugs — not bleach and brine.

Conventional chicken? Raised indoors, soaked in bleach, and often injected with up to 30% saltwater.

Our chickens live on pasture, move daily, and are processed humanely on-farm
— no drugs, no chemicals, just real food.

Taste the difference.
