DUCK

No Duck until 2020

We have an infant, something's gotta give...

The duck's diet:

Pasture and GMO free grain

Our ducks supplement their GMO free grain diet with lots of grubs, roots, grass, insects and weeds. Its so entertaining to watch the ducks drill their bills down into the soil to gobble up some delicious, unseen morsel. They are full of character!

Breed:

Pekin

Known as the more traditional meat duck, this breed is superior for roasting. Although roasting a duck is a bit more involved then a chicken, the flavor is phenomenal. We get rave reviews from our customers about the flavor of our Pekin ducks.

Where to buy our duck:

Middlebury Farmers Market

Duck will be available in summer 2019 until we sell out in the fall (usually in November). We are always striving to grow our duck operation to meet the demand, but the learning curve with processing them is a steep one. If you know you would like duck, let us know and we can reserve some for you. Otherwise they are available occasionally at the Middlebury Farmers Market, and we offer fresh duck every 4-5 weeks throughout the market season.
