It all starts with our specialty breeds of choice. We have selected heritage breeds, not found commercially, that thrive in a true open pasture setting, foraging on what nature gives them.
Our heritage breed chickens, Freedom Rangers, are a beautiful red color and are named this because they do really well on pasture (commercial chickens don't like to or sometimes are too big to move around and feed). They also grow slower, on a more natural curve, finishing with more natural nutrient density than hyper fast growing commercial chickens.
Our birds freely roam our pastures, foraging for bugs and grubs in the soil. We move them to new pastures daily so that they get the best forage possible.
We supplement their natural diet with a high-quality ORGANIC, Non-GMO grain mix from Modesto Milling.
We make sure our chickens stay on our farm their whole lives. Almost every producer in today's market, supermarkets and small farms alike, ship their animals off to far away, large-scale facilities when it is time to harvest. We take the welfare of our animals very seriously and treat them the best that we can.
Our chickens are raised without the use of antibiotics, steroids, and added growth hormones.
The average size is about 4-4.5lbs per whole chicken.
Believe it or not, we don't make a lot of money raising chickens. We wanted to bring them on board to help build the soil and regenerate the land. We produce a very small number of chickens every year so if you're lucky enough to get your hands on one, you'll never want to eat anything else.
Thank you for supporting our small ranch, connecting with our customers is very important to us!

Zach Beasley, Half Hog Customer Buellton, Ca
Old Oak Pastures is everything someone who is looking for quality meat and who cares deeply about ethical sourcing could ever hope for. My wife and I had the privilege to tour the farm and it is truly a one of a kind operation.
The property is absolutely stunning and seeing the high quality of care and attention that the animals receive is truly touching and a sigh of relief for anyone who is horrified by factory farming.

Half Hog Customer Buellton, Ca
This high quality of care really shines through in the taste of the final product as well! The marbling on the pork make each cut look like a work of art!
It was also a fantastic experience to go through the cut sheet with the farmers and customize our share to our exact specifications. It was even more of a surprise to find out our share had even more than what was covered in the cut sheet! Pork jowl, leaf lard, and more that anyone looking to make high quality home cooking could ask for.
We couldn't be happier with our purchase and will continue to buy more shares in the future!

Karen Stokes, Chicken Customer. Buellton, Ca
We are Privileged to have access to a local chicken farm for pasture raised chicken. Compared to a free range chicken National Brands, Old Oak Pastures chicken had depth, bolder flavor, a springy smoky chew, skin crisped easier and the flesh came off the bone readily! Such a treat that we never knew we needed! Keep up the great work Halli and Michael!
How our meats compare:
We mimic nature with our grazing and move cows frequently from paddock to paddock, so we don’t over graze or over rest certain areas of the ranch. We try to graze at the highest densities possible for the shortest amount of time possible and allow for recoveries up to a year long.
Cows did not evolve to live on grain. Grain requires a completely different set of enzymes for digestion and a completely different digestive process to unlock the nutrients contained inside the grain.
No MRNa Jabs, No Medications, No Antibiotics, No Nonsense.
Quality and Bioavailability of nutrients in both soil and our meat. We are focused on practicing and proving that our ranching practices lead to healthy soils and more nutrient dense meat.
We are a Network of Family Owned Ranches.
We practice "Bud Williams" style low stress livestock handling techniques on the ranch. We don’t use cattle prods and we minimize yelling and quick movements which stress cows out.
Building up ranchers in the WEST. Building soil in the WEST. Building connections in the WEST. We love talking about our regenerative ranching partners. We are focused on connection from land to plate.
