A note from the farm... We are a small family-owned/operated farm that produces all-natural, high-quality meat and egg products for local customers, available on a weekly delivery route or at Farmer Markets. We also sell hay, straw, livestock, and farm-related goods. We hope you enjoy our amazing Turkeys and Ducks this season :)
More about the Duck... Originating in the warm climates of South America, the Muscovy duck is a breed apart from the rest. It is by far the leanest domesticated duck breed. Long the favorite of Europeans, Muscovy is now becoming the duck of choice here in the United States.
Muscovy duck has a unique taste: it is lean, meaty, tender and flavorful. A 4 lb. Muscovy has the highest yield of any duck available and 50 percent more breast meat than other ducks. Muscovy breast meat is 99 percent lean and the skin of our duck has 50% less fat than the Malard or Pekin varieties
A note about Size....While we do our best to get you the exact size and duck that you want, the birds are still growing so their size is a best guess. Unlike massive conventional turkey operations, we do not process and freeze them at our desired size. Instead we wait to process them so that you get a never frozen fresh duck. We may reach out to you if a bird in the weight range is not available. Our Bird Person, Will, is friendly!
