Because it costs more to raise food the right way. Our birds:

• Live longer

• Have more space

• Eat more feed

• Require more labor

• Improve the land

You’re paying for real animal welfare, environmental stewardship, and nutrient-dense food— we try our hardest to make this affordable, but without compromising on quality.

Most of our customers say once they try it, they can’t go back. Better flavor, better texture, and peace of mind knowing exactly where your food came from.

Because every bird is slightly different.

Our chickens are raised naturally on pasture, which means they grow at different rates—just like people do. Rather than forcing them into a uniform size, we let them grow at their own pace.

That’s why we price by weight bands instead of exact weights.

Each band represents a small weight range, and the price reflects the average weight within that range. This keeps things simple, fair, and predictable for you—while still honoring the reality of real, naturally raised animals.

Yes. Each pricing band clearly shows the expected weight range, so you’ll always know approximately how large your bird or cut will be.

We could—but that system often creates confusion, delays, and constantly changing totals at pickup.

Using bands allows us to:
• Keep checkout simple
• Avoid surprise price changes after checkout
• Pack orders efficiently
• Reduce waste
• Make planning easier for customers

It also ensures you always know what you’re paying for before you order.

Yes, but only within the stated band range. Sometimes you’ll get a bird or cut on the larger end, sometimes on the smaller—but never outside the range you selected.

Many customers end up pleasantly surprised by slightly larger birds
