Eggs, Chicken and Turkey
Giving our birds access to a natural diet in sunshine, fresh air, and on grass makes a huge difference.
Bane Farm chickens and turkeys are out on pasture as long as the grass is growing! As true pasture raised birds, they live in portable shelters that are moved to a new patch of grass daily. This mimics how a wild flock would move in search of food — and provides them with the nutrients they need to produce healthy and nutritious eggs and meat. Giving our birds access to a natural diet in sunshine, fresh air, and on grass makes a huge difference. Learn more about our eggs and poultry here!
Studies have shown that true pasture raised hen's eggs vs. conventional hen's eggs are:
2/3 higher in vitamin A
3 times higher in vitamin E
significantly higher in D and B vitamins
have 2-3 times more omega fatty acids
have higher levels of carotenoids, good for eye health (deep orange color in the yolks)
USDA certified labels saying eggs and meat are “pasture raised” only requires that the birds have access to pasture. That could be a small patch of barren ground outside a huge chicken barn. So the official certified labels you see on"pasture raised", "free range" (and even “organic”) eggs can be deceiving.
Your best bet is to buy your meat and eggs from a local trusted source (like Bane Farm) so you know exactly how they were raised!
