Stewing hens are now available
We are sold out of broilers for the season. However, we have a small number of stewing hens available for $10 a bird. Stewing hens are laying hens that are no longer productive. These are not available in your local grocery store. They make the best chicken stock and soups. We can only make them available once a year when we replenish our flocks. After these are sold, we will not have any more stewing hens available until Fall of 2009.
We began raising our own chicken two years ago and have not purchased a factory farmed chicken since. His whole life Mark has been allergic to chicken and turkey. Years ago, he had allergy testing done and he was highly allergic to poultry. We decided to try raising our own. Mark has never had a single allergic reaction to our chicken or turkey. We haven’t tested our birds to understand what is different, but it just makes sense to us that by raising birds naturally with full access to sunshine, fresh air and grass will produce healthier meat.
