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.

Farmer Dan Signature

Why Heartstone Farm Chicken is Simply Better

Heartstone Farms chicken is a cut above anything you’ll find at the grocery store. Not because of fancy claims. Because of how it’s actually raised and handled, start to finish.

Farmer Dan personally chooses every farm and processor we work with. If a farmer isn’t raising birds the right way, or a processor cuts corners, we don’t do business with them. Period.

We source our chicken from small family farms in Vermont and New York, where birds are raised with care, not crammed into industrial houses. These are real farms where the families themselves are involved in the day-to-day care of the animals.

Our chickens are never given antibiotics or growth hormones. During the warmer months, they spend time on pasture. In winter, they’re kept in cage-free barns, with warmth, shelter, and constant access to feed and water.

When it’s time for processing, birds are transported to one of two small, family-run processors

  • Morning Star Poultry (Amish-owned) in Fort Plains, New York
  • CluckYa Chicken in Gardiner, Maine

Both facilities use air-chilling, one of the biggest quality differences in chicken.

More than 95% of supermarket chicken in the U.S. is cooled in large chemical-laden water baths. During that process, the meat absorbs water, which dilutes flavor and affects texture.

Our chicken is cooled using cold, circulating air instead of water. No soaking. No added water weight. Just clean, properly chilled poultry.

The result is chicken that:

  • Tastes like chicken should
  • Has better texture
  • Browns and cooks properly
  • Shrinks less in the pan

Simply put, this is chicken raised and processed the old-fashioned way, by people who care.
