"..bio security to provide our customers with healthy and happy birds."
Biosecurity icon of a biosecure boots and mask
We practice bio security to provide our customers with healthy and happy birds.  We do not have tours or a day at the farm. Unfortunately, shoes and vehicle tires are a pathway for contamination. We have worked extremely hard and value our flocks as part of our extended family. Read more>
"..the strongest and best breeder to carry on the lineage of the flock." 
Icon of a chicken breeder or a backyard hen
Unlike catering purely to seasonal chick orders, our urban backyard hen market gives us the unique opportunity to watch the hens grow from chicks to pullets.  We pick the strongest & best breeder to carry on the lineage of the flock.  Read more>
"..the unique opportunity to produce some of the best tasting heritage chickens
in North America."

Watching our male chicks grow into roosters enables us to select the best ones for our breeding programs. It also gives us the unique opportunity to produce some of the best tasting heritage chickens in North America.  Read more>
"..lines of pure bred birds that can be traced back hundreds of years."
Icon showing a rooster to explain that we have some of the best tasting pastured poultry in the USA
Our primary focus is chicken preservation.  It’s a circle of sustainability that is driven largely by our efforts to keep the birds that we love for many more generations to come.  We have lines of pure bred birds that can be traced back hundreds of years.  ​Read more>
"..chicks for sale that are from the best."

What sets us apart from people who only raise trios or have a few chicks is that we are actually focused on the breeds that we have.  We raise birds from breeding stock that has been selected from large preservation flocks.  Our goal is to provide our customers with chicks that are from the best.  Read more>
"..a no-kill chick farm."
Icon of a chick as a symbol that we are a no-kill chick farm & chicks are from the best of the best breeders.
We strive to be unique and more sustainable than any other North American chicken farmer or breeder. Our chicks are sold straight run unless specified as we do not squeeze chicks to ascertain whether they will become useful layers. To us, each and every bird is useful.  We are a no-kill chick farm.  Our hens and roosters get to experience life and grow into adults on pasture.  Read more>
"..our own crops and work with plant genetics.."
Icon showing trees to show that we raise our own crops & work with plant genetics like flowers & brassica.
Another note of interest is that we raise our own crops and work with plant genetics which are mostly flowers and brassica.  We do not use harmful pesticides or insecticides.  We believe that nothing beats fresh and all-natural from the ground.  Our birds really enjoy the fruit of our labor whether it's Pacific Northwest pumpkins, berries, corn, apples, kale..

Apple & Corn Finished Pasture-Raised Heritage Type Chicken 

This collection is from our heritage type artisan chickens like Le Grand that are faster growth birds. Apple plus our very own organically raised Bellingham Sweet Corn finishing lends a unique flavor to the already wonderful birds we raise, and the apple seems to act almost as a tenderizer. Sweet notes in combination with yellow fat makes this a bird worth the time to cook. 

​​Fryers. Raised 12 weeks on pasture. 

$6.99  per lb. (whole bird 2.5 to 3.5 lbs each).

Eggs Should be $12 a Dozen

9/13/2023 
If you’re willing to pay six dollars a gallon for gas, you should be willing to step up and help the real farmers out. Here’s a few things to think about next time you are in the store bargain shopping.

Let’s face it everything in this world today costs a dollar whether it’s a mango or an apple or insert some other wholesome vegetable here. Nothing offers what the egg can offer. It is a complete meal in and of itself with proteins, good cholesterol, omega, minerals and vitamins. Why the heck can’t I charge a dollar per egg?

Next to Palisade Peaches, the egg is one of the most fragile commodities in the world. Chickens literally have to bust their butt for commercial farmers to make enough eggs every year, and their final reward, the soup pot... Read more>

Spring Creek Heritage Farms' Bellingham Sweet Corn. -Coming Soon!
Probably the best sweet corn we have eaten and our friends and clients agree.  We sell out fast so get on the order list now. Because of the high sugar content, it’s best to eat within a day or two after we hand pick your order at night when it’s cool out. It won’t get stuck in your teeth like traditional corn that is machine harvested in volume. This is an excellent choice for barbecues and family get together. I can almost guarantee that people will ask where you got such delicious corn.  Visit our Available Now page to know more about our Bellingham Sweet Corn.
