- Grass-fed animals impart the best health.

- Essential Omaga3's and Omega6's.
- Farm fresh and raised on living grasses. This enables the birds to
eat all the varied, living grasses, other plants, insects, bugs,etc.,
that they can find. Since chickens also need grain, they cannot be
totally grass-fed, according to several experts. Chicken are offered
a limited amount of grain and watering daily. Chickens will eat up
to 30% of their calories in grass (and that's a LOT of grass), if
allowed access to unlimited supplies. Pasturing the poultry assures
that they have these supplies of living grass at all times. Poultry
raised on open grass, instead of in over-crowded lots, are high in
beneficial fats and other factors.
- Lower cholesterol and greatly reduce degenerative disease in the
consumer! Eating large proportions of living green plants, while
foraging for insects and seeds and myriad other natural commodities
that science hasn't identified yet, and with minimal need for
medication, grass-fed animals create more vibrant health than other
poultry. Moreover, the meat and eggs are incredibly tasty compared
to general market chicken. Currently, restaurateurs are one of the
largest groups of purchasers of pastured poultry, but even among the
best chefs, there is still very little awareness of the existence of
this type of meat, much less about its health benefits.
- No antibiotics.
- No growth hormones.
- No effect on total cholesterol or LDL. Actually lowers the risk of
heart disease.

pasture, in fresh air and sunshine, taste superior to confinement
raised poultry. Many also think the naturally raised poultry has a
firmer texture and more satisfying "bite".
