"Pastured " simply means free range of a pasture. Since our farm is our home, it is difficult and not profitable to let the poultry have free run of our entire yard and garden space. Instead we rotate our flocks in large, fresh pasture areas. |
| Our birds have access to fresh, clean grass, bugs, air, and sunshine everyday. This is actually more beneficial than most "Free range" systems, in which birds are just packed into a warehouse. With the lack of individual cages, they can be labeled "Free range", but still do not have the nutritional qualities of pastured poultry. In addition to pasture, our geese receive a supplemental dose of grit, brewers yeast, fresh garlic, and a custom grind feed which contains no hormones, antibiotics, medications, or steroids. | |
| The geese breeds on our farm consist of African, Embden, and Toulouse. We acquired them after requests for a Christmas goose, but we were wary of geese's naturally aggressive behavior. However,our geese run in the pasture with our ducks, and act as guard geese, protecting the flock from predators, so it has worked well. |  |
| Goose is a traditional holiday meal, and is generally darker in the meat. If properly prepared, the skin will crisp up like duck, and provides ample goose fat for cooking with. Visit our Goose Recipes page to learn more. | |
