Cherry Grove Farm is one of only a handful of farms in the US that is currently raising the American Blue Footed Bresse chicken.

​

This exclusive breed of chicken has only been in the United States since 2011. American Bresse (rhymes with dress) come from the famous French Bresse, known as "the queen of poultry," a protected heritage breed. Similar to both the French flag and American flag, this beautiful chicken is red, white, and blue, with a vibrant red comb, white feathers, and blue feet. 

​

Bresse chicken is famous for being "the most delicious chicken in the world."

​

The meat has a darker, richer flavor profile than any chicken you've ever tasted. The breast meat is incredibly juicy, and the long legs of this beautiful bird are tender and buttery.

​

The Blue-Footed Bresse is a dual purpose breed, laying up to 250 eggs per year, and is the only kind of eggs we sell at Cherry Grove Farm. We are also incubating small batches of Bresse eggs in order to raise our own meat birds, which you can purchase at our farm as a whole frozen chicken.

 

A slow-growing heritage breed, we only process several batches for sale every year. Cherry Grove Farm is working on increasing our Bresse production in 2027, so that more will be available for sale in the future. ​​
