| Organic Pasture Raised Truly Free Ranging (soy free)Chickens |
| Due to popular demand, (by our customers and our cows; chickens are part of our organic fly control program) we will be raising on pasture again this year, Meat Chickens! And this year they are SOY FREE. We will again have the big meaty cornish cross and the heritage breed chickens to choose from! Meat chickens will be able to be reserved for $5 each and will be harvested every other week throughout the summer beginning just before Memorial weekend up until the weather turns yucky again. We will sell them to you whole for $3.95 a pound and weights vary from 3 to 6 pounds. Chickens can be halved or quartered for you, at an additional fee, but must be arranged with us before slaughter day. Organ meats available separately. Harvest dates (on Wednesdays and Thursday every week) will begin on May 9th and continue until mid-November so you can enjoy fresh chickens every week. Frozen chickens are always available. Chickens can be picked up fresh at the farm, by reservation, on Friday and Saturday each week mentioned above. If you do not have a reservation, call or email to see if any are not reserved that you may pick up. Chickens not sold will go into the freezer on Saturday and will be available for sale as frozen whole chickens. Reserved chickens can be frozen for you also if you wish. Chickens sell "like hotcakes", so reserve yours promptly! Reservations are not absolutely necessary, but guarantee you get yours. Please email me or use the contact us form or telephone me if you have trouble with the order form. I can manually enter your order for you. |

| It used to be the only way we got it but now people are afraid of a whole chicken after becoming accustomed to getting select parts from the store and restaurants. You can cut yours up and repackage it the way you want it, or roast it whole and turn it into several other dishes or eat it roasted. A roast chicken is so good, one of the ultimate comfort foods. Add a little mac & cheese and a side of veggies...YUM. Below is a link to a Better Homes & Gardens Roasting Guide for all sorts of foods, including your whole chicken. You can Yahoo search "how to cook a whole chicken" and get tons of ideas, including ideas to divide up your cooked chicken to make and freeze several interesting meals for future thaw and bake dishes among other things. Think chicken salad, chicken and dumplings, chicken cacciatore, chicken divan, chickens fajitas, chicken tortilla soup, old fashioned chicken noodle soup, home made chicken stock, fried chicken, etc.... |
| Like chicken wings? We love 'em. Purchase 3 whole chickens, cut off the wings, cut off the tips of these wings (at the last joint) and discard or save for stock, cut the remaining wing at the joint and you now have a dozen wings the way you are paying too much to get them from the pizza shop or wherever. To fry them, add oil or lard (I make ours from our own pasture raised pork fat) or shortening to a skillet to make it only half as deep as these wings, heat your oil to 350 degrees, fry on one side until golden on bottom, turn over and fry the other side the same. Melt some butter, add as much red hot sauce and toss the wings in it. Easy! And where else will you get organic free range chicken wings but your own kitchen? |
