PASTURED POULTRY

At Rafter 8, our chickens are raised the way nature intended, on fresh pasture, with clean feed, and under watchful care from day one. We use regenerative practices and a high-quality, soy-free, corn-free diet, never relying on antibiotics, vaccines, or chemical inputs. Just clean living, good stewardship, and respect for God’s creation.

Unlike most poultry operations, our chicks are never shipped in the mail. We personally pick them up directly from the hatchery and bring them home to the farm within hours. This reduces stress, builds stronger immune systems, and gives our birds the healthiest possible start.

On pasture, our flocks live in mobile chicken tractors that provide both protection and freedom. Moved twice daily, these shelters ensure the birds always have access to fresh grass, insects, and plenty of room to scratch and roam. We intentionally under-stock each tractor so every bird can thrive.

The result is a chicken unlike anything you’ll find in the grocery store, deeply flavorful, nutrient-dense, and raised with care you can taste. Our small-batch poultry often sells out quickly, so be sure to reserve yours while it’s available.
