SUPPORT LOCAL: AOF AND THE BOISE FARMERS MARKET

farmers market

As we welcome the warm embrace of summer, the bustling  Boise Farmers Market becomes a hub for those who share a commitment to local sourcing and sustainable living. American Ostrich Farms (AOF) is proud to be a part of this vibrant community, offering a unique and sustainable alternative to traditional meats through our locally-raised ostrich products.

WHY CHOOSE OSTRICH MEAT?

Ostrich meat isn't just delicious—it's also a nutrient dense powerhouse. Boasting impressive benefits, ostrich meat is lean and packed with iron and protein, making it a perfect choice for health-conscious consumers. What's more, ostriches require significantly less land, water, and feed compared to traditional livestock, which means choosing ostrich meat helps reduce our ecological footprint.

FIND US AT BFM

Visiting the Boise Farmers Market offers us a unique opportunity to meet and talk to new customers. We're there every weekend, ready to chat with you about the benefits of ostrich meat and how we raise our birds right here in Idaho. You can sample our products, learn new recipes, and take home a variety of cuts, from steaks to burgers.

COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABILITY AND QUALITY

Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond our farming practices. We strive to maintain a transparent supply chain by keeping our operations local and ensuring that every aspect of our production meets high standards of environmental stewardship and expert practices. This dedication is not only good for the planet but also ensures the highest quality and freshness of our products.

JOIN US IN SUPPORTING LOCAL

When you choose American Ostrich Farms, you're not just buying meat; you're making a conscious decision to support sustainable agriculture and local business. Every purchase helps us continue to provide healthy, environmentally friendly meat options at the Boise Farmers Market and local eateries. We invite you to join us in this sustainable journey. If you’re here in the Treasure Valley, visit us at the Boise Farmers Market Saturdays through the end of June to discover the delicious, healthy benefits of ostrich meat. Let's celebrate the power of local choices and their positive impact on our community.

SOOTHING SPRING IRRITATION

As the seasons change, your skin works overtime to adapt. Spring allergies release histamines in your body, which can lead to redness, itching, and puffiness—especially around the eyes and nose. On top of that, time spent outdoors increases your exposure to environmental stressors like wind, dust, and UV rays. These factors can weaken your skin barrier, leading to flare-ups, dryness, or even eczema-like symptoms.
