Not your everyday chicken - A Farm to Fork story with Michelle McManus

In this episode, Jo and Kate are joined by Michelle McManus from Southampton Homestead in Balingup.   Michelle, together with her husband Jeff Pow, run WA’s first pasture-raised poultry farm.  Michelle and Jeff manage their poultry as part of a planned grazing program, following a small herd of cows and moved every day onto fresh, biodiverse and mostly perennial pasture.   The birds are harvested by hand in their on-farm poultry micro-abattoir.  In this conversation, Jo and Kate take a closer look at the ins and outs of direct marketing farm produce.
