Primal Pastures vs.
Store Bought Organic Chicken
This is what chicken is supposed to look like. The one on the right is what you've been eating.
On the right is a conventionally raised chicken breast: pale, oversized, fatty and raised on corn and soy in confinement.
On the left is a Primal Pastures chicken breast: deep pink in color, raised on open pasture, corn-free, soy-free, foraging bugs, worms and insects and grown the way nature intended.
The color and texture speak for themselves. Our birds forage on open pasture every day, building healthy muscle and developing richer nutrients you can see and taste.
why it matters
Not just "access to" outdoors. Our chickens are rotated to fresh pasture daily in their mobile coops.
Our chicken has been third party lab tested by Edacious and confirmed to be nutritionally superior to store-bought organic chicken, with 50% less PUFAs and 1000% more B Vitamins*
Soil regeneration is a loop. Animals nourish the soil, the soil grows rooted vegetation, the rooted vegetation nourishes the animals. Regeneration in action.
Most 'pasture raised' chicken sees grass for less than 5 minutes a day. Ours see it for 24 hours.
Meat that meets your standards.
Before factory farming, before feedlots, before corn and soy became the default, animals lived outside, ate what nature intended, and the meat was just better.
We've built Primal Pastures around that standard. Every animal on open pasture, every day. No shortcuts in the feed, no shortcuts on the land. Just real food, raised right, delivered to your door.
Due to cost Ive been eating organic chicken from whole foods and they all began to taste like horrible chemicals. I had forgotten what good clean chicken tastes like. I have severe histamine and mast cell issues that require me to eat the cleanest chicken I can find.
Customer
Even the natural color of the chicken is beautiful. I also bought the ground Italian pork sausage which is the best I’ve had from anywhere. This is my favorite place to purchase quality meats.

Primal Pastures has consistently the best chicken breast meat. I only feed my family Primal Pastures meats, it tastes so good!

Yes. We're proud to run our own in-house pick and pack operation, which lets us offer competitive home-delivery rates nationwide.
The Farm on Washington — our 30-acre regenerative u-pick farm in Murrieta, CA — is certified organic. For our Primal Pastures meats, we deliberately choose not to pursue organic certification because our standards already go far beyond what the label requires.
Organic certification boils down to three things: no antibiotics, no GMOs, and organic feed. That's not our standard — that's our baseline. Certification is also prohibitively expensive and paperwork-heavy, which favors large industrial organic operations over small farms like ours.
We've built our entire operation around mimicking nature: rotational grazing, no confinement, no corn, no grain finishing, no chemical inputs on our pastures, and regenerative practices that build soil and capture carbon. We'd rather invest those certification dollars back into our animals and our land.
Shipping rates can vary depending on your region, and are set by UPS and FedEx. These are calculated at checkout.
Here are the full details of ourShipping Policy.
Our chickens live on pasture every day, all day, morning to night. They eat grass, seeds, bugs, and worms, supplemented with a certified organic, corn-free, soy-free, non-GMO feed made of organic milo, barley, peas, fishmeal, and olive oil. It's a low-PUFA blend that's different from even the most revered farms in the country.
Our chickens live 24/7 outside on pasture. That's not true for 99.9999% of chickens in the USA, even free-range and organic birds spend the vast majority of their lives indoors. We rotate our birds onto fresh pasture daily, which eliminates the need for drugs, antibiotics, or vaccines, and puts manure exactly where it belongs: back into the soil.
Our pork and poultry are raised completely vaccine-free. Our cattle and sheep receive birth vaccinations against serious diseases like blackleg and other environmental pathogens specific to their living areas. We never use mRNA vaccines.
Quality is our priority. All of our meat is flash-frozen at the peak of freshness to lock in nutrients and flavor, and shipped to you frozen. Some of our beef is aged for up to two weeks. Please reach out to info@primalpastures.com for more information.
Absolutely not. Our chicken is processed with a hydrogen peroxide and vinegar rinse, never the chlorine bath that's standard in conventional processing, and then immediately flash-frozen to lock in quality.
Yes. Our cattle are 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, raised on pristine pasture with constant rotation, and never given hormones, antibiotics, or grain.
Our home base is in Southern California, and we partner with a small network of like-minded farms that meet The Primal Standard to keep our farm shop stocked. Every partner farm follows the same uncompromising practices we follow ourselves. Learn more here.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth: most “organic” food doesn’t meet our standards… or yours. Certifications set a baseline. Our practices go much further — restoring soil health, water quality, and biodiversity. From our grass-fed and grass-finished cattle to our 100% corn- and soy-free chicken, every product reflects our unwavering commitment to nutrient density and ethical farming.
It goes so far beyond the label that we built our own measure: The Primal Standard. It’s our consistent commitment to food that’s truly worthy of your table.
There’s nothing comparable out there besides raising your own. (And if you do, let us know. We’d love that.)
When my family and I started Primal Pastures in 2012, we had one goal: raise the cleanest meat for our own families. That mission has taken us across the country.
A decade-plus later, we raise animals on open pasture the way they're meant to live and partner with regenerative farmers across America to ship that food directly to families who care where it comes from.
We hope you taste the difference. And if you ever have questions, please reach out. We love hearing from you.
