Chickens
Our chickens are raised free range on pasture with shelters
that are moved daily onto fresh grass. The birds have
lots of room to run while still having the shelters
to give them shade from the sun and protection from
the rain. The range area and the shelters are surrounded
with mesh to protect the birds from predators.
By moving the ranges the birds have access to fresh
vegetative grass at all times. This gives our flocks
a clean healthy environment to thrive in. The birds
are also fed Free Choice,certified
organic grain.
Turkeys, Ducks and Geese
The turkeys, Muscovy ducks and Embden geese are raised
on pasture in a large mesh enclosure that is moved daily.
A shelter is provided for shade and rest and moved along
with the enclosure.
The turkeys, ducks and geese are also given, free
choice, a combination of certified organic grains.
Pasture Poultry
(Certified Organic Raised)
Pasture Poultry is a lean meat that is very dense, tender,
juicy and has wonderful flavour. Care must must be taken
not to over cook the birds since there is not a lot
of fat under the skin.
All Sunworks Farm processed meats are nitrate, sulphite,
MSG, egg, wheat and dairy free.
Eggs
Our hens are free to roam the pasture during the day
and are provided with shelter for the night in an Egg
Mobile (hen house on wheels). The hens feel secure laying
their eggs in the nesting boxes which are hooded within
the Egg Mobile. We protect our hens from predators with
a mesh fence that is moved regularly to allow them access
to fresh grass.
They are fed certified organic grains. No chemical wash
or sealants are used when cleaning the eggs. The eggs
are large and brown with dark yellow yolks that are
filled with goodness.
Beef
(Certified Organic Raised)
Our cattle are time controlled grazed in the summer
and are fed organic hay with an organic grain supplement
on the pasture in the winter. The meat is aged for 21
days, the old fashioned way, to maintain its flavour
and tenderness.
Pork
(Certified Organic Raised)
We raise our pigs on the pasture. They are free to eat
the grass and be in the fresh air and sunshine. The
pigs are moved regularly onto fresh pasture and are
provided with free choice certified organic grains.
The meat is very firm, lean, tender and delicious when
cooked.
Lamb
(Certified Organic Raised)
The lambs are born in the spring on our sister's farm
near Rosalind, Alberta, and are raised on Certified
Organic pasture. They are moved frequently to fresh pasture and are also given free choice certified organic grains to meet their dietary needs.
This meat is tender and flavourful.
Why Celiac Safe and Allergy
Free?
We, the Hamilton Family, suffer from Celiacs and severe
food allergies. All of our sausages, wieners, ham, bacon
and specialty meats are free of gluten, egg, Diary (no
fillers), nitrates, sulphates, MSG (no chemicals or
preservatives). Just healthy meat and spices. Honey
and Maple Syrup are used as sweeteners (no refined sugars).
And the salt is a mineralized rock salt (full of micronutrients).
