New Source of Duck and Chicken Eggs

Have you ever had fresh duck eggs? They are divine. I recently got a few from Farmer Dana, Head Bottle Washer and Hen Herder at Moose Manor Farm in Pomfret, MD. She sells naturally raised chicken eggs, duck eggs, free range meat chickens, free range meat ducks, and birds for you to raise. Try her out! She updates her web site daily with the quantity of eggs she has in stock. Tomorrow she is harvesting chickens to sell for meat. If you want one, go reserve one today as there is a limited number of birds available.

What's available in this harvest at Moose Manor Farm:

Dana will be doing all the processing and packaging on Saturday, July 17th  pick up of fresh, unfrozen birds is on Sunday from 9am -7pm or Monday from 5pm - 7pm.  At 7pm Monday all uncollected birds will be placed in the freezer and folks can contact me to arrange a convenient pick up time.

Whole Cornish Roasters (15 birds):
$3 per pound. Hens average 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 lb. and cockerels average 4 to 6 lb. These birds are young, tender, and very meaty. Excellent for roasting, grilling, or frying. Raised Free & Humanely without grow-lights, antibiotics or pesticides.

Whole Muscovy Duck (6 birds):
$3 per pound. Hens average 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 lb. and drakes average 6 to 8 lb. High in meat-to-bone ratio, with less weight loss after cooking than Pekin ducks. Low in fat with a wonderful veal-like texture and flavor. Excellent when roasted whole; breasts are great to sauté or grill. Raised Free & Humanely without grow-lights, antibiotics or pesticides.

Whole Welsh Harlequin Duck (3 birds):
Drakes average 3 to 5 lb.  These high quality lean roasters are  rich-tasting and a good source of nutrients like iron, zinc and selenium. Excellent when roasted whole and well sized making for a beautiful table bird.

Dana is planning a second harvest in the November timeframe so if someone isn't able to get a bird this time there will be posting another reservation event this fall.
