Their earliest food study was at Virginia Tech. The food sciences lab found that Polyface food has high counts of polyunsaturated fats. Their chickens have far less bacteria than those that are USDA-approved & chlorine-bathed.
Nutrients in their eggs were measured in another study by Mother Earth News. Eggs in cartons from the stores have 48 micrograms of folic acid, compared to Polyface eggs coming in at 1038.
Joel Salatin says, "what happens in the farm ecosystem creates what happens on the plate."
"I have the incredible privilege of being a visceral participant, of touching Creation as a healer. That is such a blessing. I heal the land, therefore I am."
