Whole Pasture Raised Chicken

We source our chicken from one farm in Leicestershire. The farm is Pasture for Life certified and rears truly free range, outdoor birds. 

The birds are reared to a minimum of 81 days, beyond the organic standard of 70 days, and spend a minimum of 70% of their life outdoors, earning themselves the title "Total Freedom" chickens. 

The chickens are free from antibiotics and are grown slowly and traditionally, with an emphasis on pasture feeding and movement. The breed is a hubbard, considered to be the superior breed for free range birds, with longer legs allowing them to roam further, foraging on pasture rich with wildflowers, clover, grubs and worms making for a deeper, more succulent meat, with stronger more nutrient dense bones. They are fed a sustainably sourced supplemental feed of low protein, natural cereals to aid their development.

____________________________

All of our chicken is properly free range, and we also do not source from farms that use ‘quick growing’ breeds meaning they are kept for at least twice as long to mature naturally. All our farms practice regenerative agriculture.

All of our chicken is kept in conditions that allow the birds to express their natural behaviour in a stress free high welfare environment, this gives a deep rich succulent flavour that is incomparable to conventionally raised birds.

Really nice chicken, well plucked, tasted great cooked using the J.Kenji Lopez alt method. Which lines up beautifully with a reverse sear on a beef joint to make a great Christmas spread.

Wonderful bird! Ordered 2 and roasted one for early Christmas party, meat is so juicy! My guests were all very satisfied:)

A fantastic family roast

This chicken looked fantastic, nothing like a supermarket bird. It was larger than I expected, it tasted delicious and looked great served on the table for a family roast.

We have also gone on to try the diced chicken and the chicken breasts for a great curry.

Very tasty and a good size...

we got a medium bird, distinct for it's 'long legs' and much browner meat that your super market cook - i.e.it was a chicken that has really lived! (I imagine my 'pet' chickens would taste like...),and it was big! Only used half of four of us...
definitely how it should be...will get again, thank you.

Chicken that actually TASTES of something!!

I went off chicken a while back because I could tell from the carcass that the chicken was grown too quickly and poorly treated. I've never tasted chicken like this one. It was succulent and tender and full of flavour! The dark meat is actually dark unlike standard supermarket chicken.

I'll never buy any other chicken again! Regeneratively farmed, soy free chicken is the way forward!!

Highly recommend!
