Customer photo review of Pasture-Raised Chicken Breast Tenders

I was skeptical about ordering because I live in Minnesota, but I decided to take a chance. Boy, am I happy with my order! I was concerned about the length of shipping time, but my chicken arrived frozen and neatly packed! I am overly satisfied with the quality! Thank you Greener Pastures Chicken! I look forward to another order very soon!

Pasture-Raised Chicken Breast Tenders

These tenders are just that, so tender! Juicy and super versatile, I appreciate being able to quickly bread them for a dinner my kids always love. I’ve been ordering from greener pastures for a while now and I have to note their stellar costumer service - which is hard to come by these days!

Pasture-Raised Chicken Breast Tenders

The delivery is great and the chicken tastes amazing, but the chicken tender packages leak all over after they start to thaw and make a mess in the refrigerator….but still the best chicken I’ve ever tasted!

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How much time do the birds spend on the pasture?

Our birds live the first 3 weeks of their lives in the brooder so they can develop their feathers to better regulate their own body temperature. As soon as they are ready, they move out to the pasture for the remainder of their lives where they can run around in the grass and forage freely.

What kind of nutrients make up the supplemental, organic feed?

Their certified organic feed can include any of the following ingredients: soy, corn, sorghum, sunflower, alfalfa, vitamins, and trace minerals.

How often are the birds moved?

They’re moved to a new section of pasture every day!

What is the major differentiator between our birds and the standard American chicken?

The active outdoor lifestyle of our birds, in tandem with our certified organic feed and certified organic pasture, leads to a happier, healthier, and tastier chicken as opposed to confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs) that make up over 99% of chicken sold in the U.S. food system.

What is regenerative about your farm?

Healthy birds start with healthy soil. Microorganisms, with the help of sunshine and clean water, help break down chicken manure into vital nutrients that feed the soil biology. When the chickens move back to the re-nourished section of land, the chickens then reap the benefits by consuming the nutrient-rich grasses. Our rotational grazing system adds more organic matter to the soil and leaves healthier grassland behind over time.

What kind of animal welfare standards do you uphold?

One of our many certifications is the Certified Humane certification. We’re proud to offer our birds a superior lifestyle that is free from stress.

Do your birds receive any antibiotics or hormones?

Our birds are never raised with antibiotics or hormones.

Is your chicken gluten free?

Yes, our chicken is gluten free. 

Do you feed your chickens corn or soy?

We feed USDA Certified Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified corn and soy as part of a much more diverse feedstock to our chickens to ensure their baseline nutritional needs are met. In addition to their feed, our chickens supplement their diets with native pasture grasses, bugs, and grit. We prioritize their supplemental diets by moving the birds to fresh pasture every day. Our farm and feed ingredients are never sprayed with harmful pesticides, herbicides, or desiccants like that of their conventional, "natural," and strictly "Non-GMO" counterparts. 

How do we know the birds are living happy lives?

We’re proud to hold the most certifications in the industry: USDA Organic, Real Organic Project, Regenerative Organic Certified, Non-GMO Project Verified, GoTexan, and Certified Humane. These certifications require strenuous adherence to guidelines and standards that our farm team works 365 days a year to meet!
