Welcome to Our Humble Farm

We’re a small farm in Missouri exclusively breeding the very versatile American Bresse chicken. We raise the color and white varieties, adhering to the French Standard of Perfection of this incredible tri-purpose (taste, meat and eggs) heritage bird. With 400 years behind the French SOP it is tried and true.

Practice Strict Bio Security

We are not meaning to be rude, but practice strict bio security. We have a lot at stake and can’t risk outside diseases or illness on our farm and to our chickens.  We also won’t allow any new chickens on our property as we now have a closed flock. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Hatching Geese and Chicks

We’re a small breeder and not a hatchery, meaning we only hatch to specific orders by our customers. With that said, we exclusively breeds American Bresse chickens and no other breeds.  We also breed four varieties of geese; African, White Chinese, Toulouse and the American Buff. Contact us to order.

Heritage Tri-Purpose

Learn why Homesteaders are replacing their hybrid meat birds with this multi-purpose heritage breed. The “Queen’s of poultry and the poultry of Kings”!

Why We Chose Bresse

We were looking for an all purpose heritage breed chicken more suitable to our needs and stumbled upon Swedish Homestead and liked what we saw!

We Follow the French SOP

The American Poultry Association (APA) has yet to recognized the American Bresse and the American “standards” have become indiscriminate.
