"Wormuth Farm is a small New Jersey family farm. We ensure our animals enjoy their best possible life, foraging outdoors 24 x 7 on pasture grasses, clover, and insects, protected from predators at night, and cared for with integrity and transparency." - Farmer Mike
How we farm chicken and lamb for our customers
Moved daily onto new pasture grass shared with our sheep flock, each of our pastured chickens live outdoors in the fresh air and sunshine of Wantage NJ. Our birds spend their days foraging grass, seeds, clover, and bugs - expressing their natural chicken behaviors. These elements are vital for their nutrient-dense value and exceptional taste.
Why our lamb and poultry is different
-
our animals forage open grassy pasture and forest
-
never just ‘cage-free’, animal welfare is synonymous with living outdoors in the sunshine and fresh air
-
a farm free from herbicides, pesticides, and harmful artificial fertilizers
-
sustainable farming practices which continuously seek to enhance pasture and soil quality
Pastured is beyond free-range
Unlike conventional factory chicken, pasture raised chicken is higher quality with a deeper flavor, better texture, and is heathier for you and your family.
A number of studies confirm that pastured poultry is lower in saturated fats and higher in Omega-3 fatty acids compared to commodity chicken sold by large corporations.
