Taste the Heirloom Difference

Mary's Heirloom chicken stands out for its exceptional quality and taste, rooted in traditional farming practices. These chickens come from time-honored breeds, known for their robust health and longevity, which contribute to the superior flavor and texture of their meat. Unlike conventional chickens, heirloom breeds grow at a natural pace, allowing their muscles to develop fully and infusing the meat with a richer, more distinctive flavor. Raised in more humane, free-ranging environments, these chickens enjoy a natural diet, leading to a healthier and tastier product.

Air Chilled for Better Flavor

Mary’s chickens are cooled with a state of the art “Air Chill” system. Air Chill helps inhibit the spread of bacteria by keeping all of the chickens independent, and saves 30,000 gallons of chlorinated water every day! The air chilled method produces a better tasting chicken. With no water added, the air chilled method keeps the "real" chicken flavor and juices. No water is absorbed, so you get the natural flavor of chicken.
