Pastured Poultry

Why pastured poultry? Stephen takes us to the pasture to find out!

We’ve looked to nature to determine how our chickens ought to be raised. The predominant ancestor of the domesticated chicken is the Red Jungle Fowl. Wild Red Jungle Fowl live outside, with the sky above them and the earth below them. So do our chickens! Also like the Red Jungle Fowl, our chickens have fresh insects and grass to munch on every day. We strive to provide our birds with dignified lives resembling those that they would live in the wild. Their healthy lifestyle makes a big difference for the birds, the environment, and for you!

  • Our birds only get the best. Organic, non-GMO feed coupled with fresh greens and juicy bugs on the pasture makes for a diversified and healthy diet. Imagine eating this good food with the breeze on your beak and the sun on your back. These birds are living the good life!

  • Julian Farm chickens are generous with their abundance. While they grow big and strong on the pasture, they also fertilize and sanitize it. This means that they leave their environment in better shape for the next generation of birds.

  • Naturally, such healthy and happy chickens translate to nutritious meat that you can feel great about eating. Studies have shown the meat of pastured chickens to have elevated Omega 3 fatty acids, Vitamins A and E, and iron as well as lower cholesterol than their factory raised counterparts. What’s just as important though, is that it’s delicious! We are sure that you will find our chicken to be some of the most flavorful meat you’ve ever had.

We’re excited to raise some great birds for great people. You’re invited to come out anytime to meet us and our birds, and we hope you do. You’ll be even more welcome to visit if you bring treats (the birds like worms, we prefer beef jerky).
