Food Security: Pastured Chickens Raised on Wisconsin Pastures Now Available for BULK Purchase at 50% Discount for a Limited Time!

My online store, Healthy Traditions, started our Grass-fed Traditions product line 20 years ago, featuring grass-fed meats and pastured poultry. We were one of the first companies in the U.S. to start shipping such high quality meats and poultry (or any foods for that matter) direct to the consumer through our online store on the Internet, directly to consumers' homes, using the power of the Internet to distribute these products nationwide. Not even Amazon.com was shipping food back then in their early days. 20 years later now, the Internet is now no longer reliable, and subject to millions of cyberattacks every day. Therefore, to help our customers achieve some food security in these current turbulent times, we are doing something this Fall that we have never done before. We are offering bulk purchases of our Grass-fed Traditions products that can be stored in freezers so that one can keep a steady inventory of high quality foods in their own homes, in the event of an Internet or power grid failure. So for a limited time we are offering our customers the opportunity to purchase our pastured chickens raised on Wisconsin pastures outdoors on a GMO-free feed, unvaccinated, and no soy or corn. Purchasing in bulk will save you about 50% off the cost of ordering just 3 or 4 birds at a time. If you want healthy REAL food in your food preparation plans in case it becomes scarce, instead of just packaged commodity food like MREs that you probably don't eat regularly anyway, and would make you even sicker in a national emergency situation, invest in some freezers and a generator and bulk up on healthy non-contaminated chicken! Frozen meats almost never go bad if kept frozen, and only diminish in quality after many years. I have 5-year-old Grass-fed Traditions whole chickens in my own freezer that I stored during COVID, and it still tastes as good today as when I stored it.

Avian Flu Vaccines for Livestock Approved! Support Small-Scale American Farmers who do NOT Vaccinate!

The USDA has given approval to new avian flu vaccines for chickens, and is set to approve new avian flu vaccines for cattle. If you don't want to eat commercial chicken and beef from large "farms" with Confined Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) who need vaccines and other pharmaceutical products to try and keep their animals healthy, it is time to support small-scale operations where farmers refuse to vaccinate their livestock. For those who have not yet identified sources for such meat in your local communities, we have been selling such meat for over 15 years over the Internet from small-scale farmers in Wisconsin, most of them Amish. The farmers we contract with NEVER use vaccines on their livestock. We still have some remaining stock from last year's processing that are vaccine-free, but it is moving fast.

Wisconsin Shuts Down Soy-free Egg Market: Denies Consumers Choice to Purchase Healthy Eggs

People with allergies to soy protein now have one less source for purchasing soy-free eggs. Two small-scale farmers in Wisconsin have been informed by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture that they must stop selling their soy-free and GMO-tested eggs to consumers until they meet state government regulations for shipping eggs that they allege the farmers are violating. They have been shipping their eggs directly to the homes of customers throughout the United States since the beginning of 2010. In letters dated, March 13, 2017, the State of Wisconsin sent two farmers who are part of the Wisconsin Pasturelands Cooperative a Cease and Desist order regarding their eggs. The two farmers were informed that they were selling eggs and shipping them to consumers without proper refrigeration during shipping. They were specifically instructed that until this situation is corrected, “you shall not hold, process, package or sell the eggs for human consumption from your home or any other location.” The farmer cooperative run by Amish in rural Wisconsin since 2010 has been working together with an Internet business, Tropical Traditions (now Healthy Traditions), to market their eggs from cage-free chickens fed a specially developed feed that contains no soy, no corn, and ingredients that are tested to be free from GMOs and the herbicide glyphosate. They are believed to be one of the first ones in the U.S. to offer eggs from chickens on a soy-free diet. The eggs were marketed under the Grass-fed Traditions brand, which is now part of the Healthy Traditions product line offering alternatives to commodity food. Healthy Traditions tests their products for the presence of GMOs and the herbicide glyphosate. While the State of Wisconsin is claiming that the farmers are violating regulations for the refrigerated transportation of eggs, there is no indication that these regulations apply to consumers transporting their own eggs, whether they are transporting the eggs themselves directly from the farm, or paying someone else to ship them on their behalf.
