From Soil to Table at Chicken Road

At Chicken Road, we've developed a closed-loop system where waste becomes a resource. Our animals contribute to soil fertility, which grows nutrient-dense plants, which feed both humans and animals.

Key Elements of Chicken Road's System:

  • Rotational grazing for soil health and carbon sequestration
  • Composting and natural fertilizers from on-farm resources
  • Water conservation and rainwater harvesting systems
  • Biodiversity preservation and habitat creation for wildlife
  • Minimal food miles and direct distribution to local consumers
  • On-farm processing to reduce waste and add value

By visiting Chicken Road, you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of how sustainable food systems work and why they matter for our future. Our farm demonstrates that productivity and ecological health can go hand in hand.
