BETTER FOR YOU AND THE PLANET
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do.
A BETTER OPTION
Raising ostriches requires 1/3 the fresh water, 1/50th the land, and generates 1/10th the greenhouse gas emissions of cattle.
ECO-FRIENDLY FARM
Our solar-powered facilities, locally sourced feed, and systems to convert waste into chemical-free compost are just a few of the ways we conserve resources.
NET ZERO IMPACT
We utilize every possible byproduct and are continually looking for innovative ways to achieve a net-zero impact on the environment.
ALWAYS HUMANE
We go to great lengths to ensure our flock is healthy, happy, and humanely handled from hatch to harvest.
