FAQs

Q: Are your chickens organic?

Chickens are fed a diet that is 100% vegetarian and are not given growth-promoting antibiotics. They are raised and processed in a humane manner and are never adulterated in any way. That said, they are not certified organic. Certifications like organic, which merely dictate a 'worst case' scenario, are prohibitively expensive for farmers and processors below a certain size.

Q: How are the chickens raised?

The chickens are reared in temperature controlled houses that allow them to have comfortable living conditions and do not restrict their movement. They are not confined, or over-stocked like factory farmed chickens are. Commonwealth hand selects the best growers, and ensures that humane treatment and practices are always being followed. Improperly raised birds don't taste anywhere near as good as well-raised birds.

Q: Where are the chickens raised?

Chickens are primarily raised on small family farms in Pennsylvania, and to a lesser extent in New Hampshire. Commonwealth’s decision to raise birds outside of Maine was the result of an extensive sustainability analysis conducted in collaboration with the University of Maine, considering the carbon footprint of growing here versus in a warmer climate, and the emissions associated with multiple shipments of feed versus transporting birds once, among other factors. Given that quality is a primary motivating factor for us, we think this arrangement is the right balance between what makes sense environmentally, and what produces the best quality bird.

Why Heartstone Farm Chicken is Simply Better

Heartstone Farm chicken is a cut above any store-bought chicken you've ever tried.

Our chickens are raised with exceptional care, resulting in a flavor that's unmatched.

We source our chicken from eight Amish-owned family farms in Central New York and partner with Morning Star Poultry, an Amish-owned processor in Fort Plains, New York, to ensure the highest quality from farm to table.

Unlike the mass-produced chicken found in supermarkets, our birds are raised on small family farms where every member of the family is involved in caring for them.

Our chickens are never given antibiotics or growth hormones. They thrive on pasture during the warmer months, and when winter comes, they are kept in cage-free barns, where they stay warm and have constant access to feed and water.

When it’s time for processing, our chickens are transported less than 30 minutes to Morning Star, a small, family-owned USDA facility.

One of the key differences with our chicken is the air-chilling process.

Most industrially processed chicken is cooled in chemical-laden water baths, causing the meat to absorb unwanted additives. At Heartstone Farm, we believe your family deserves better. Our poultry is butchered the same day it arrives at our facility, following all USDA guidelines meticulously. It then passes through several environmentally controlled chambers, where purified cold air circulates around the chicken.

The result? A healthier, safer, and more flavorful chicken that’s simply better.
