Meet The farm of Jacob Glick is located in Millhall, Pennsylvania. These chickens are considered pasture-raised.
Pasture-raised egg farms represent the highest standard of poultry welfare. On these farms, hens are roaming through fresh pastures. This freedom enables the birds to engage in natural behaviors, which include foraging for seeds and insects, dust-bathing, and enjoying constant sunlight. This constant movement prevents land degradation and naturally fertilizes the soil, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem.
Why Pasture-Raised Stands Out
Space to Roam: Certified pasture-raised standards guarantee that hens have at least 108 square feet per hen (2.5 acres/1,000 hens & 1 acre/400 hens).
Natural Diet: Foraging for bugs and varied greens provides a complex nutrient profile that grain-only diets simply can’t match.
Eco-System Health: These farms often utilize regenerative agriculture techniques, prioritizing hens vitality and the long-term health of the Pennsylvania countryside.
This farm participates in the NPIP program (National Poultry Improvement Plan), which is a national program in collaboration with state and federal departments of agriculture and industry representatives. The main objective is to use new diagnostic technology to effectively improve poultry and poultry products throughout the U.S. NPIP provides certification that poultry and poultry products destined for insterstate and international shipments are disease free.
Setting the Standard for Egg Safety at R.W Sauder Inc, we don’t just meet safety requirements—we exceed them. We are proud participants in the Pennsylvania Egg Quality Assurance Program (PEQAP), a voluntary initiative recognized as one of the most rigorous food safety programs in the country. By following PEQAP’s strict protocols for flock testing and environmental monitoring, we provide an extra layer of protection against Salmonella Enteritidis, ensuring that every egg reaching your kitchen is as safe as it is nutritious.
