FRESH CHICKEN!
Every Wednesday is chicken processing day here at the farm and that means FRESH CHICKEN for you! We had quite a few orders last week for unbagged chicken, so if you're looking to get in on it this week, please let us know sooner rather than later.
Our meat chickens are pasture raised and housed in chicken tractors which we move daily so they can access fresh grass. Chickens generally average about 5lbs and are sold as a whole bird.
Use the unbagged chickens to cut up into pieces/parts and freeze for a later date. I did this all last year, and come winter, those chicken breasts and legs were deliciously prepared into meals.
CHICKEN PROCESSING SPECIAL: Purchase unbagged fresh chickens from our chill tank to your bag and/or cooler and save money while you're at it! Unbagged chicken is $4.50/lb (you'll save .75/lb!). If you are interested in taking advantage of our unbagged special, you must reserve your chickens in advance.Drop us an email (please do NOT respond to this email) no later than Wednesday at 9:00am, and let us know how many you'd like to reserve. Your reserved unbagged chicken must be picked up at our farm stand Wednesday, June 16th 12:00 & 5:00. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN BAG (or cooler, stockpot, etc.) FOR TRANSPORTING YOUR CHICKEN HOME.
Bagged chickens will be available for purchase at our farm stand after 12:00 on Wednesday. Bagged price is $5.25/lb.
Our farm stand is located at 1966 Healdville Road in Mount Holly and is open 7 days a week from 12:00 - 6:00. We look forward to seeing you!
