Chicken

We raise our meat chickens outside where they are free to eat grass, bugs and worms. All our birds are moved daily to fresh pasture. They are also fed feed that is antibiotic and hormone free. Our chicken is available at our farm stand or online (with regionally shipping available) at joesfarm.us

Eggs

Our hens free range outside in our mobile coops. They are moved daily to fresh pasture. Are hens are happy and lay extremely beautiful eggs with thick, orange, delicious yokes! We use non-GMO feed along with their diet of grass, bugs, worms, and produce scraps. Beef

All our beef is raised on pasture and moved daily. It is grass-fed, grass-finished for the highest quality meat. We never use any hormones or antibiotics. Our beef is sold annually in bulk (quarter, half and whole) or in various cuts at our farm store. Want to know more or shop our products? Follow us:

I little behind the scenes!

At 3 weeks old our birds come out of the brooder and spend the rest of their lives (3-4 weeks) on fresh pasture! Fresh air, sunshine, clean grass, bugs, warms, and seeds! What more could a chicken want?

5 LIES most people believe about Pasture Poultry:

1. Pasture-raised means birds are actually on pasture.
While I wish this were true, it often isn’t. The vast majority of chicken meat and eggs sold in the U.S. with a “pasture-raised” label only require limited access to the outdoors. There’s no requirement that birds actually go outside, or that what they go out to is grass rather than a moonscape dirt lot.

2. An orange yolk means a healthier egg.
Once upon a time, this had some truth to it. Darker yolks usually meant hens were outside foraging on grass, seeds, and bugs. Today, many commercial operations add marigold extract to the feed to darken yolks. In some cases, the yolks end up far darker than what you would naturally get from hens on pasture.

3. Third-party certifications always mean something.
Don’t get me wrong, some certifications have ok standards and some oversight. But the truth is, the majority don’t mean much. More often than not, certifications can act as a marketing layer over poor growing practices.

4. “Fresh” meat is actually fresh.
I remember when I first learned that “fresh” meat could be frozen, then “slacked” (industry term for thawed) and sold as fresh chicken, beef, or pork. The truth is, the “fresh” chicken you’re eating could be months old, thawed, and then sold as fresh. I don’t necessarily have a problem with the practice, but most consumers don’t realize it happens.

5. Pasture-raised chicken can’t feed the world.
I disagree with that statement from a factual standpoint. There is plenty of land in the U.S. to raise chickens on pasture and move them daily. In fact, integrating poultry with crop farms can improve soil health and crop yields, not to mention all the wasted yards and desertified land that could benefit from a little chicken and cattle impact.

That said, I also like what my friend Will Harris says:
“I’m not trying to save the world, I’m trying to save White Oak Pastures.”
(I hope I got that close to right, Will!)

And there’s truth in that, too. As farmers, we don’t necessarily need to change the whole world, we need to improve our farms and the communities we have influence in.

When you come to our farm, you may think we are raising chickens out on pasture (you would be right, lol), but we are raising something even more important: the next generation!

I have no intentions of pressuring any of our kids to take over the farm one day, but rather to make the farm an option for them. This means the farm has to have a purpose, be financially stable, and have a place where they can use their God-given skills!

Chicken is awesome and important, but people, and children in particular, are immensely more important!

When you support our farm, you are also supporting the future of food for your kids!

Moving chickens to fresh pasture is so beneficial to the health of the chicken, the environment, and the people who eat the chicken!

Do you think pasture raised chicken should be moved to fresh pasture regularly or can it come from a stationary barn?
