We have joined forces with our partners throughout Florida to raise free range chickens for our customers and the sustainable restaurant trade. Since our partners bring their products to our CSA members twice weekly, no extra fossil fuel is used to bring chickens to us.

 

Commercial chicken is a poor excuse for tasty fowl. Living in dark, crowded, fecal dust clouded buildings, these depressed birds never see the sun during their accelerated six week life span. Our chickens get to chase bugs, scratch dirt, eat grass and generally, act like chickens! And, they live 10 to 14 weeks. 

 

Poussin is the French term for spring chicken. It is sold under the Label Rouge trademark in France. A perfect little two pound bird for a couple or the single person that doesn't mind getting another meal from it. Poussin are heritage "naked neck" chickens that are processed at a young age. Unbelievably tender and buttery, these petite fowl will delight your palate. Caution - poussins are addicting!

 

 

Commercial chicken is bland and lackluster. You'll never again tell anyone that something else "tastes just like chicken" because nothing else tastes like our chickens! You have never tasted true chicken until you enjoy one of these birds. Cook to an internal temperature of 165 to 175 degrees for a tender, juicy poultry sensation.

 

Chickens average 4.0 lbs each. Poussin (spring chicken) average 2 lbs.They are USDA processed, quick chilled, vacumn packed and labeled. Sent to you frozen for optimum freshness upon arrival.

 

Shipping is available for what it costs us. Since shipping is so expensive these days - consider - If you live north of Melbourne, Florida your best bet is to pick up at the ranch. For those of you on the west coast of FLA., OR ANYWHERE ALONG THE turnpikes, you can rendezvous with us along the Turnpike when we are on our way to our West Palm Beach farm. All South Florida residents - we will bring your order down to our West Palm Beach property and you can pick up from there.
