来自Bostock Brothers的消息
Ben and George Bostock grew up on their family’s organic apple orchard in sunny Hawke’s Bay and share a family passion for healthy, safe growing practices where there is control from the farm to plate.
This means no antibiotics, no hormones and no genetic modification.
The brothers are determined to give their organic chickens the best life. Their orchard provides the perfect environment to farm organic chickens.
The chickens roam freely outside once they are fully feathered enjoying a happy life among the trees.
