Nature Knows Best - Vintage Farms

Nature Knows Best

Here at Vintage Farms, we believe in natural farming to achieve exceptional food.

Our flock of ladies (Barred Rocks & Dominiques), protected by Heimdal (our stunning Barred Rock rooster), dwell in a spacious coop (cleaned daily) and forage on an equally spacious and lush pasture.

Shade trees, outdoor roost, rest areas, access to clean & always fresh water, lots of areas to socialize during the daily dust bath, plenty of sunshine, and fresh air keep our flock happy and healthy.

The nutritious diet of insects, bugs, grass & greens, plus the occasional frog, provides everything a laying hen needs. 24/7 access to supplemental calcium and organic, non-GMO feed ensures that during times when natural resources are less available, our hens have what they need. 

We believe that nature knows best. For that reason, we never force our hens to lay eggs. No artificial light, hormones, etc., have a place on our farm.

We never cull young hens at 12 months, or de-beak them!  Many commercial and natural egg producers provide artificial light to increase productivity, cull to prevent a productivity dip when hens molt, and de-beak chickens to “prevent injury”.  

We believe all of this is cruelty towards chickens and has no place on our farm. Our hens are allowed a fully natural chicken life. 

Therefore, eggs are not always available, especially during the darker winter months. Use the contact us form to reach out and check availability.

Our eggs are collected by hand each day. 

Healthy hens are happy hens, and happy hens lay amazing eggs!
