Finding pasture-raised chicken in Beaver County and Butler County is easier than it used to be, but not every label means the same thing. This guide explains what to look for and how to buy whole, frozen pasture-raised chicken from a farm you can actually visit.
What pasture-raised chicken actually means
Pasture-raised means the birds spend their lives on grass with room to move, forage, and act like chickens. At Bryant Creek Heights, our Grey Broiler chickens are raised on pasture, moved regularly, and processed into whole, frozen birds. They are unvaccinated and raised without routine pharmaceuticals.
Why buy local chicken
A whole chicken from a local farm gives you more than meat. You get bones for broth, fat for roasting, and the confidence of knowing where the bird lived and how it was handled. You also keep money in Beaver and Butler County instead of sending it to a distant distribution center.
Questions to ask any farm
Where we fit in
Bryant Creek Heights is a small family farm in Conway, PA, serving Beaver County, Butler County, and the Pittsburgh area. We sell pasture-raised chicken by preorder and coordinate pickup by text. Our chicken page lists current availability and pricing.
How to reserve your birds
Because we raise a limited number of birds each batch, the best way to get chicken is to reserve ahead. Preorders open before the birds go to processing, and pickup happens at the farm once they are frozen.
