Join us in sustainable living. Why? Because we like the air we breathe, the water we drink and the natural landscape we see.

As a consumer, you have the right to choose products that benefit our environment. And, as a producer, we feel that it is our obligation to preserve our environment for future generations to enjoy.

Our turkey products are designed to enhance the mind, body and well-being of our customers. Our organic byproducts are composted with the same commitment to quality and enhancement goals.

Our sustainability plan focuses on providing the best outcomes for both our human and natural environments now... and into the indefinite future. We are working symbiotically with nature to develop natural solutions. It's not about limiting our footprint...it's about eliminating our footprint!


Jason Diestel, Director of Sustainability

By employing sustainable methods of agricultural, such as composting and eliminating the use of toxic chemicals, fertilizers and inorganic substances, we hope to greatly reduce our ecological footprint.

We are...
Eliminating the use of toxic chemicals, fertilizers, and inorganic substances in our environment

Conserving biological resources

Reusing resources instead of land filling

Conserving ground water

In detail...
We maintain a natural environment for all of our turkeys by eliminating the need for antibiotics and feed additives

We maintain a vertically integrated operation thus significantly reducing the quantity of fossil fuels needed to transport our products

We are committed to reducing the foot print that we leave in our environment by reducing our waste stream

After processing we treat all of our used water with a Zenon membrane water filtration system ensuring that the water we used is then purified, reused and returned to our environment to be just as pure as it was when it came from our well

We treat all of our solid organic waste by windrow composting. Through the use of composting we reduce the Greenhouse Gas Emissions of products which would normally be land filled by approximately 70 percent; by composting our manure, feathers and cardboard we are essentially reducing our waste stream by 75 percent!

We are committed to continually moving toward a company wide zero landfill waste policy

Did you know? Composting reduces the volume of waste that ends up in landfills and improves soil fertility while reducing water usage by up to 20%!
