“Excellent products! Their chicken is absolutely wonderful. You can tell you are getting a fresh and healthy chicken when you purchase from Schoeneweiss farms. Not only is the chicken itself juicy and tender, but the carcass makes the best chicken and bone broths. It has yielded me some of the best broths I’ve ever cooked with! I’m also a fan of their chicken feet…and so is my dog! I throw a couple chicken feet with my broths and the final product has so much wonderful collagen in it. Can’t beat it! Did I mention the dog loves it?! Great natural treat for you furry friends. The owners are also very kind and reasonable people to work with. You can tell they care very much about the happiness of their customers and offering a superb product. Angela is awesome! Thanks Schoeneweiss farms!”

“My wife and I are senior citizens and we've been very sick 3 times from chicken! Grocery store, family restaurant and fast food restaurant chicken is really BAD for you, mostly because chemicals and other things have to be used for processing! THEN, we met the Schoeneweiss family! We've been eating their farm-raised chickens for almost a year now and soon they will have FRESH EGGS too! I've lost 30 pounds by not eating garbage chicken! It has literally saved my life and it tastes like real chicken. Folks, this is serious stuff! I don't have anything to gain by posting this, I wish I could tell the whole world!”

“As an Executive Chef, I have been purchasing organic chickens for the past 3 decades. 2 months ago I found Schoeneweiss Farms online and have purchased many whole chickens, breasts, legs and thighs. Their organic chickens are the most flavorful and highest quality of chickens that I have ever had. I congratulate Christopher and Angela on their amazing success with their birds and farm. I am grateful to call them my farmers. They are wonderful people and purchasing from their website is so simple. Many thanks, Michael Grasso”

“These chickens/turkey is by far “5 Star” . We have baked, fried and over the 4th of July we smoked one!! Each time the meat has been moist, tender and tastes Great. The chicken/turkeys are clean….and ORGANIC. I do not worry about what they are fed, or how long ago they were processed! They are Clean, clean, clean! You will not regret purchasing their chickens or turkey!”

“We been enjoying their chicken all summer and stocked up the freezer for the winter. We just ordered their turkey for Thanksgiving and as with the chickens it was outstanding. We asked for a big one and we got it. 21 pounds of scrumptiousness( if that's such a word) But most of all the Schoeweneiss are great people.”

“I saw that all your customer reviews were five stars, so I wanted to ask: if I want to buy a number of chickens, do you sell to any customer or are you specialized in selling only to companies?”

“I called today to ask questions about raising chickens and my questions were thoroughly answered by a polite guy. I appreciated being treated with respect.”

“We fried our chicken wings, they were amazing. Chicken was light, not heavy! We feel really good after eating it.”
