The Tyner Pond Farm Difference: Why Pasture-Raised Chicken Matters

At Tyner Pond Farm, we believe that raising chickens isn't just about producing food – it's about nurturing a vibrant ecosystem where animals thrive and the land flourishes. Our pasture-raised chickens are at the heart of this philosophy.

A Life of Freedom & Natural Behavior

  Picture a flock of chickens living in the warm sunshine, scratching at the earth, and pecking for worms, bugs and seeds. This is the life our chickens enjoy, roaming freely on our lush Indiana pastures. It's a far cry from the cramped, stressful conditions of factory farms. This natural lifestyle isn't just good for the chickens; it's also what makes our chicken so incredibly delicious. The exercise and varied diet result in meat that's firm, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Forget the bland, watery chicken you find in the grocery store – our birds offer an experience that's unforgettable.

Healthy Birds, Healthy You

We believe that healthy animals lead to healthy food. That's why we never use antibiotics or hormones in our flocks. Our chickens' diet consists of what nature intended: grasses, bugs, and the occasional tasty treat they find while foraging. This natural diet, combined with their active lifestyle, results in chicken that's not only more flavorful but also packed with nutrients. Pasture-raised chicken is higher in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins A and E, and beta-carotene compared to conventionally raised chicken. It's a healthier choice for you and your family.

A Commitment to Sustainability
