Pasture-raised chicken and eggs from a family farm on the Big Island, sold direct and at a weekly farm stand.
Punachicks Farm is a small family farm founded in May 2013 by the Taaroa Ohana, with a focus on pasture-raised chicken and eggs on the Big Island of Hawaii. Pasture-raised chicken is its primary product, sold fresh at an on-farm farm stand, through online subscription boxes, at farmers markets, to restaurants, and through retail stores. Beyond poultry, the farm also raises beef cattle, dairy cows, and seasonal turkeys, and grows a variety of fruit trees including breadfruit, banana, avocado, and longan. It holds a Hawaii Department of Health approved-source designation and a state food establishment permit, and was the first farm in Hawaii approved to operate under the USDA 20,000-birds-per-year processing exemption. Chickens are hand-processed on the farm. The farm also runs a food truck. Learn more on their About Page.
Punachicks Farm raises Cornish Cross chickens in portable, floorless 10x12 pens that are moved across pasture on a daily basis, allowing the birds to graze on fresh grass and bugs while their manure is spread evenly to build soil fertility. Chicks receive fresh-cut grass from their first day in the brooder. Throughout the grow-out period the farm feeds certified organic feed sourced from Modesto Milling in California, whose grains are domestically sourced and regularly tested for GMO contamination. The farm follows organic methods and applies no chemicals to its pasture, though it does not carry USDA organic certification. The fertile pasture, continuously rotated by chicken tractors, also supports beef and dairy cattle, and the farm experiments with agroforestry mixed cropping using compost generated from its poultry operations.
