A note from the farmer: Many customers who have soy allergies or who like to avoid soy in general have asked why we don't offer a soy free option for our broiler chicken. We have tried this many times but have seen that the birds don't grow well without soy. Soy contains an almost perfect balance of the 5 key amino acids that chickens need in order to grow well.
About Shirttail Creek Farm
In 2017, Sam and Carolyn Moffett traded their advertising careers in the city to be closer to the land and give back to their community. They now have a 250-acre regenerative farm in Brenham with 100 cows and 4500 chickens. You can get their pasture-raised chicken, beef, pork, eggs delivered to your home via their website or pick up in person at Mueller, Downtown Austin, and Sunset Valley farmers markets and at their Local Pastures storefronts in Austin.
To experience the farm firsthand, you can shop their farmstand (Fri 2-6pm & Sat 10-2pm) or book a stay at the Shirttail Bunkhouse and request a guided walking tour. And if you run into Sam while you’re there, be sure to ask him about his regenerative practices. His enthusiasm for building fertile soil while raising golden-yolked eggs and nutrient-dense proteins has a way of staying with you long after you leave.
