Family of Farmers
For 100 years, Perdue Farms has proudly worked with small family farmers across the country to raise animals in a thoughtful, caring way. And we think going the extra mile translates to a better tasting chicken. Our animals never receive antibiotics or growth hormones and are given enough space to forage and exhibit behavior that comes naturally to them.
Meet Our Farmers
Care for animals and respect for the land go hand in hand with healthy eating. That’s why we work with small farm families who truly appreciate wholesome food. We’re happy to introduce you to some of our family farmers.
Boyds Farm
Kentucky
The Boyds know that a healthier bird is healthier for you. That's why they take pride in the care they give every flock on their farm. Nine years ago they decided to raise chickens full time to be closer to their family. The Boyds' farm is never short on action. When they are not taking care of the chickens or chasing after the grandkids, Cindy enjoys quilting, while Bobby is the song leader for his church. You might even catch him singing to the chickens. No matter what obstacles they face on the farm, they say it's worth it because "you are what you eat," and they enjoy providing families with No-Antibiotics-Ever chicken.
Choundrys Farm
Maryland
Nick is the owner of two poultry farms, Ideal Farm and Dream Farm, made up of eight houses totaling 268,800 square feet in Salisbury, Maryland. Before he started farming, Nick was living in Long Island, New York, with his wife and four children and running a car service business. To spend more time with his family and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, Nick purchased his farm in 2013. He built the first four houses and placed his first flock in February 2014, and then placed the second set of four houses in December 2016. Nick was honored to receive the DPI grower of the year award in 2017 and is a proud member of the Perdue producer council.
Greers Farm
Delaware
Ryan and Laura both come from a long line of farmers, with the Greer family being a loyal Farm Bureau member for more than 30 years. Ryan and Laura are excited about their first child, a daughter born in early 2017 in Middletown, Delaware. They’re also excited about being the first organic poultry farm in New Castle County, Delaware, and being recognized as the county’s farm family of the year in 2016. Over the years, their farm has had diverse crops, including soybeans, wheat, barley, rye, corn, pumpkins and hay.
