It's impossible to raise Truly Pastured Chickens during the snowy winter months.
But of course we want to eat chicken year round... And industrial grocery store chicken is NO comparison.
So each summer we raise extra pastured chickens and store them in our large walk-in freezer on the farm. The goal is to freeze enough to last until the grass starts growing again in the spring.
We pack the freezer full to always be prepared for any possible food shortages...
The problem is, we still need space in our freezer for the Thanksgiving Turkeys we plan to harvest in October.
This is your chance to save money and help your farmers by clearing freezer space for our specialty pastured Turkeys!
Whether you're filling a chest freezer or simply stocking up for the month... we got a bundle deal for you.
Bundle sizes will start as low as 25 lb. and range up to savings well over $150! You'll get to choose the one that fits your family...

Our Chicken Protocols
Yep, we do it the real way – we move our chickens twice a day to fresh grass and clover on our certified organic pastures!
Allergic to Soy or Corn? We got the chicken (and eggs) you are looking for!
No cut off beaks or crowding into tight pens. Our chickens use their beaks the way God designed. Look out, bugs!
We do our own butchering on farm – No chlorine baths for our chickens!
Yes, GMO-Free and also Chemical-Free organically grown feed! Most pastured chicken farmers are only GMO-Free...
Why use Antibiotics when we can keep our chickens healthy by raising them on plenty of fresh grass, water, and organic feed?
"Why does Family Cow pastured chicken taste better than other pastured chicken?"
One reason is that our pasture grasses which the chickens forage daily are all certified organic. This means no exposure to herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, heavy metal toxins, antibiotics or genetically modified plants. Pure diet makes purer taste... That's a no-brainer!
Maybe it's because our family and team hand-butchers our birds on our farm in our zero-waste, mobile butchering wagon. Even the feathers are composted and their nutrients returned to the farm soil. And since we are the butchers, we never allow Clorox or any other chemicals anywhere near your chickens! Nothing but a little organic apple cider vinegar and Celtic Sea Salt and ice are used in the chill water.
Or maybe it's the soy-free factor that makes them taste better. Believe it or not, most pastured chickens, even those that are certified organic, are fed soybeans or soymeal as a staple of their diet. Soy is not a natural or healthy protein source for chickens even if it is certified organic, so we do not use it.
But I think the biggest difference in improved taste and purity is that we move our chickens to new organic grass and clover 2 times per day. This is a lot of work, but we make it easier with specially designed shelters. The supplemental feeders and waterers hang from the roof, so the entire shelter moves easily and the chickens just walk to new grass!
This keeps our chickens eating the freshest, greenest, purest organic grass and clover and bugs all day long. Our photo gallery gives you a visual idea of how it all works.
Since chickens are omnivores (not herbivores), they cannot live on grass alone. To supplement their pasture diet, our chickens also get a mix of Chemical-Free, GMO-Free, Soy-free and Corn-free grains.
So ask any potential chicken supplier these three questions.
- Certified organic pasture AND feed?
- Soy-free & Corn-free diet?
- Shelters moved twice a day to fresh grass?
If the growing environment is different, the chicken simply will not be the same. The cleanness & purity of a pastured chicken is directly proportional to the pureness of their environment and diet.
It's not rocket science, folks! It's called following God's plan.
Customer Review:
"This chicken is by far the best I have ever tasted. I found it very difficult to find soy-free chicken near me so I ordered online for home shipment and it was an easy process. I had a few questions after my delivery and the family cow team very responsive. Would definitely recommend!" ~ Cameron M.
Our truly Pastured Chicken is packed with nutrition
When Chicken is moved twice a day to fresh grass like our is, it will have 2-3 times more omega-3 fatty acids than industrial grocery store chicken!
That is pretty amazing... especially when you consider that 90% of Americans are estimated to be deficient in omega-3 fatty acids!
Choose truly pastured chicken today and improve your family's omega-3 intake. You won't regret it.
Are you looking for the highest possible omega-3 intake with chicken? Make sure to choose thighs and drumsticks. Pastured Chicken Thighs have been shown to contain 450mg of omega-3 in each 4 oz. serving! That is 450mg compared to 190mg in industrial chicken. One serving of pastured chicken thighs gives you 25% of your daily recommended intake. That is a lot of omega-3s!
In comparison to the thigh meat, the chicken breast is going to be a lot less omega-3 at only about 120mg / 4 oz. serving. Then again, that is still a lot of omega-3 compared to conventional chicken breast at only 40mg / 4 oz. serving.
Truly Pastured Chicken has been shown to be much more nutritious than industrial grocery store chicken.
