Chicken & Eggs
Farm-Fresh Chicken and Eggs
We raise heritage bred meat chickens, typically Red Rangers. Our chickens are raised on green grass and pasture enjoying fresh air, sunshine, and a stress free happy life. The birds are moved daily using a “chicken tractor” system to a new spot in the pasture allowing them access to fresh grass, bugs and worms to eat. Up to 30% of their diet comes from the grass the chickens live on. We provided the remaining diet of certified organic grain from Vermont and we make certain fresh water is available at all times.

What is “Hanging Weight” (HW)?Refers to the weight of the beef carcass after removing the head, hide, and entrails, but before it is cut into individual portions. It’s important to note that hanging weight is not the same as the total pounds of meat you will receive. During processing, the carcass is further trimmed and divided into cuts, with some weight lost to bone and fat. On average, you can expect approximately 60-70% of the hanging weight to be returned as packaged, ready-to-cook beef.

How much freezer space will my beef take?Make sure your freezer has enough space to store your beef. A half-side share typically requires 8 cubic feet—about the size of a small chest freezer. A whole beef share needs approximately 16 cubic feet, suitable for a standard upright freezer.
