*Our chicken is frozen when fresh and packed in a vacuum sealed package.

Our chicken comes from our flock of free range, pasture raised hens!

The hen's here at Wolf Oak Farm are the best foragers we have ever seen, and spend their whole day foraging for wild edibles and bugs.

All that foraging and exercise on our beautiful regeneratively farmed pastures makes for quality chicken meat that flavorful, high in healthy omega-3's, and has less saturated fat than other conventionally raised birds.
