Pasture Raised - Defined By APPPA

Our Definition of Pasture-Raised Poultry (Following APPPA Standards):

We follow the American Pastured Poultry Producers Association’s (APPPA) definition of pasture-raised poultry. Our birds live on actively growing pasture with rooted vegetation and are moved regularly to fresh forage. They are not simply given “access to the outdoors,” but spend the majority of their lives directly on living grass and soil.

Unlike free-range systems, which may allow outdoor access without guaranteeing use, true pasture-raised management ensures birds live on real pasture for more than half of their lives through rotational movement.

This approach provides clean ground, healthy forage, natural behavior, and consistent access to rooted, living vegetation—resulting in better animal welfare and higher-quality poultry.
