Kansas-based heritage farmer Frank Reese, who has made it his life’s work to preserve endangered breeds of poultry, has worked for years to maintain stronger lines of chickens. Reese has partnered with his first-ever protégé, Jed Greenberg of Chosen Farms, to raise and process kosher and non-kosher chickens and guinea fowl in New Jersey.

• Humanely raised on pasture 
• 100% antibiotic free
• All vegetarian fed

Chicken
“A chicken is no better than the farmer behind it. And the genetics, of course,” says Frank Reese, whose chickens are one of the only flocks in America to receive certification by the American Poultry Association, and the USDA, as 100% purebred Heritage, standards that were set in 1873 to define and defend best practices in American farming.

Good Shepherd chickens can be traced back over 100 years, are 100% antibiotic free, and are pasture raised. This is by far the juiciest, most flavorful bird on the market today.

Guinea
A guinea tastes similar to pheasant and consists of mostly dark meat that is rich and burgundy in color, but it does not taste gamey. Frank explains that the white meat on a guinea is richer than the dark meat of a chicken! These are juicy, tender, and meaty birds yet lean, low in cholesterol, and rich in essential fatty acids.

Turkey Sausage
These Sweet Italian sausages are true classics, embodying the genuine regional flavors of New York City. Lightly seasoned, they have an outstanding flavor and an incredibly snappy texture. 
Pepe Giocoli produces New York/Italian classic sausages using 100% heritage breed pasture raised meat. The thin wheel gives each sausage a perfect snap. Pasture raised heritage breeds produce marbled delicious meat, so every bite is sure to be sweet and juicy. Parma Sausage Co. has been producing the very best New York style sausages from an original family recipe since the 1950's. This is truly the apex of the Italian-American art of sausage making. This is third generation greatness from a no-nonsense artisan who wears his white butcher’s smock like a coat of armor. New York has its own regional cuisine, and these Italian sausages are true classics.

Ground Turkey
Ground meat makes for excellent burgers, ragu or meatballs and is an ingredient in all cuisines around the world. Our ground turkey is a combination of white and dark meat from premium cuts of heritage breed turkey making it a flavorful and healthy ground meat alternative.
