It’s time to pre-order poultry and $AVE money!! We’re offering our Pastured Poultry Pre-Order for the second year and it’s now LIVE! This farm to consumer program benefits YOU, our valued customers, and our FAMILY FARM as well!
The Pastured Poultry Pre-Order Scoop:
Pre-ordering for fresh chicken pick-up* is hands-down the most economical way to get your chicken.
Here’s how it works:
We have 10 scheduled dates when we will process a small batch of fresh birds that we sell in our Farm Store and at the Grandin Village Community Market. We are offering the Pastured-Poultry Pre-order so that you, our customers, have the opportunity to get the number of fresh chickens you’d like throughout the 2017 Season. This is available to our customers at a discounted price. In exchange, we ask for three things:
1. You pre-order before March 31st.
2. You pick up your birds on the pre-determined date.
3. You pay us in advance a non-refundable deposit of $5 per bird. That deposit will be subtracted from the final price at pick-up.
Why are we doing it this way? It takes a lot of energy and labor to store poultry, more than for any of our other meats. When you agree to pick up your chickens while still fresh and transport them home in your own coolers, you are saving us the storage and handling expense. And, when you pay us that deposit up front now, you give your local, family-friendly farmers a little seed money, to help us cover our annual start-up costs that we face each Spring.
How much of a savings are we talking about?
We have two tiers of pricing for our whole chickens:
1) Pre-order by 3/31 with Farm Store Pick-up: $4.50 per pound *(Delivery to Grandin Village Community Market available for $0.25/pound)
2) Buy them as you need them at our Farm Store or any pick up locations: $5.50 per pound.
As you can see, it’s a really good idea to order NOW! Click the button below to Pre-Order!
Final Details:
If you pre-order for one of our fresh pick-up dates, you must come and get the birds at that assigned time. If something comes up and you can’t make that date, please send a representative on your behalf. Unclaimed birds will be subject to a $5 per bird storage and handling fee.
