This workable production model covers every aspect of pasture-grazed chickens from building pens to processing the meat to how to talk to your customers. Don't let the price throw you: what you are buying in this book is information - & valuable information at that for anyone serious about profitable alternatives in agriculture. There is also a 45 minute video available.

Summary: Back to basics
Review: Joel Salatin put into words what many of us are looking for...a cost effective way to "get back to nature" by farming, and providing healthy food options at the same time! His unique approach to ideas gets my imagination going. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in purchasing homegrown produce and meats, and anyone wanting to try their hand at raising them. Very practical.

Summary: The Only Step-By-Step Guide to Small-Farm Broiler Production
Review: Salatin gives a step-by-step guide to his innovative method of raising meat chickens on pasture. This book has been used by hundreds of total novices to build up profitable small-farm broiler businesses. Salatin gives clear descriptions and makes lavish use of photographs to get his points across. Pastured broilers taste better than store-bought, and the manure left behind by the pastured chickens has rejuvenated our pasture. The work is pleasant and isn't strenuous. The hardest part is becoming proficient at butchering. Salatin lays out the method, but learning to do it quickly takes practice. My wife studied this book, followed the instructions carefully, and has had three successful seasons of broiler production, and is looking forward to season #4.
