FREE-RANGE
HORMONE-FREE CHICKEN
We on Riverdale

our chickens as naturally as possible. That means letting our

May and are ready for pick-up sometime in July. Orders will be
taken starting in April. Please contact riverdale@maxminn.com to order. The price for these chickens is $1.75/lb. We
also ask a deposit of $1.00 per bird ordered. This deposit is
then credited to your account upon pick-up.
HONEY
Honey is primarily composed
of fructose, glucose and water. It also contains other sugars as
well as trace enzymes, minerals, vitamins and amino acids. The
bees on Riverdale
Farm have
access to the native prairie flowers on the upper bank of the
Chippewa River as well as fields of clover. Honey is sold in pint
jars (16 oz) for $3.00 and quart jars (44 oz) for $6.00. Please

ORGANIC BROWN
EGGS
The laying chickens who
reside at Riverdale
Farm are fed
our own organically raised corn and alfalfa. During the winter
they live in a chicken coop that contains no cages. They lay
their eggs in nests and these eggs are hand picked every day.
During the summer they are free to roam in a pen that is moved
daily, the pen is necessary to keep them safe from predators. Riverdale Farm eggs are sold for
$2.50 per dozen and
are available pretty much year round. Please contact riverdale@maxminn.com for more order information.
HORMONE-FREE NATURALLY RAISED
BEEF
Riverdale Farm
raises mainly Black Angus cattle. The cattle enjoy
wintering in the woods on our farm, allowing them to remain
outside instead of being confined indoors is healthier for them
and they adapt well to the weather. We feed them our own organic
and transitional corn, corn silage and alfalfa. During the summer
months they are able to graze on lush green grass in the pastures
we rent. Riverdale
Farm will
take orders, some cuts are not available at all times, and price
is dependant on current market price. Contact riverdale@maxminn.com for more order information.

FEEDER CATTLE

Our calves are not given any growth promotants and we use
environmentally safe products for parasite control. Contact riverdale@maxminn.com for more information on our feeder cattle.

NATURALLY RAISED LAMB
Columbia, Targhee and
Suffolk are the breeds of sheep that call Riverdale Farm
