Nebraska's Finest Farm Fresh, Free Range, Organic &
Pasture Raised Chicken at Ellsworth Crossing

Hey There, Folks! Let’s Talk Plum Creek Chicken at Ellsworth Crossing
Real Nebraska Chicken That’s Raised Right – Farm Fresh and Free Range

Hey y’all, Tony here from Ellsworth Crossing. You know, out here in Nebraska, we like things simple and honest, just like our Plum Creek Chicken. It’s farm fresh chicken that’s free range, local, organic, and pasture raised – no fancy tricks, just good ol’ family farming.

A Little About Plum Creek Chicken – Straight from the Farm

Plum Creek Chicken comes right from Plum Creek Farms down in Burchard, Nebraska, just a hop from Beatrice. The Divor family – that’s Dean and the crew – they raise these birds the old-fashioned way on their family farm. We’re talkin’ free range chicken where the hens and chicks roam together, gettin’ plenty of sunlight and fresh air. No hormones, no antibiotics, no nitrates – just pure, natural chicken.

They process ’em right on the farm with a unique coolin’ method that keeps ’em always fresh, never frozen. That means outstanding flavor and quality you can taste. We got to know ’em durin’ COVID when restaurants slowed down, and now we’re proud partners bringin’ this top-notch local chicken straight to you at Ellsworth Crossing.

And hey, we’re a fourth-generation Nebraska farm family ourselves. I got my own small farm, and we believe in source validation – come talk to me or Amber at the store, or meet the farmers on Saturdays. Where else can ya do that?

 

Why Plum Creek Chicken? 'Cause It's Better, That's Why!

 Folks tell me all the time, “Tony, you broke me!” Once you try this pasture raised chicken, you ain’t goin’ back to the store stuff. It’s got that pink hue, tender texture, and flavor that pops – way better than even other organics like Smart Chicken.

Our birds supply high-end restaurants in Omaha and Lincoln, but you can get ’em right here. State-licensed, so no bleachin’ or dippin’ like USDA requires for cross-state shippin’. Bleach don’t taste good, and it ain’t good for ya! Whether it’s breasts, thighs, whole chickens, or wings – perfect for football season grillin’ or family fried chicken nights.

It’s a bit more pricey ’cause it’s a superior product – healthier, tastier, and from happy birds on regenerative pastures. We even host special dinners with the farmers, like that one at Solid Edge with the Divor family. Come see why we sell out fast!
