What is real pasture raised poultry?

Pasture raised chickens, turkeys, and other poultry live a majority of their lives on fresh, rooted-in soil pasture. This is accomplished through movable shelters (coops).—not in a barn that only provides access to pasture. Living on fresh green grass makes pasture raised different than every other label, including free range, cage-free, organic, all-natural, and antibiotic free.

Pasture raised is a better method of farming for everything involved. The land. The birds. The people.

  • Connects you to the face behind the food
  • Imparts a deeper flavor and firmer texture to the meat
  • Reduces the need for antibiotics and medications
  • Turns manure into an asset that builds fields, soils and wildlife ecology
  • Harnesses the good things about nature
  • Offers the highest animal welfare
  • Builds a relationship with a farm in your community
  • Empowers local and rural economies

It’s a powerful thing to be able to buy pasture raised food locally.

       

Purchasing pasture raised poultry means that you are supporting a farmer who raises animals that live on fresh pastures. You have an opportunity to form a personal relationship with the farmer who raises animals in a way that honors the animal, the land, and the people. The American Pastured Poultry Producers Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to encouraging the production, processing, and marketing of poultry raised on pasture.
