Sustainability at Stiebrs Farms

At Stiebrs Farms, sustainability is not a trend, it's a responsibility. From how we care for our hens to how we manage our land and resources, every decision we make is guided by a commitment to environmental stewardship, animal welfare, and long-term farm viability.

Local Feed & Circular Farming

We proudly source the grains used in our hen feed from local Northwest growers whenever possible. By keeping our feed supply close to home, we reduce transportation impacts while supporting our local agricultural community.

Sustainability comes full circle on our farm. The natural fertilizer generated by our hens is returned to the land and used to enrich the very fields that grow our grain. This closed-loop approach improves soil health, reduces waste, and helps maintain productive farmland for future generations.

Reducing Waste Through Purposeful Use

We believe every egg has value. Eggs that do not meet carton specifications are never wasted-they are repurposed for other uses such as liquid egg products or nutritious pet food. This thoughtful use of resources allows us to minimize waste while maximizing the value of what our hens produce.

Responsible Packaging

Sustainability extends beyond the farm. Our egg cartons are made from materials that are 100% recyclable, helping reduce landfill waste and supporting a more responsible packaging cycle. We continuously evaluate our materials and processes to lessen our environmental footprint.

Stewardship of the Land

Good farming means caring for the land as much as it provides for us. We manage our fields, water, and resources with intention, always looking for ways to improve efficiency while protecting the natural environment. Being good stewards today ensures our farm remains healthy and productive for generations to come.

Our Happy Hens

Our chickens are raised in a stress-free environment with plenty of space to roam and forage. We believe that happy chickens lay the best eggs, and our customers agree!

Animal Welfare & Sustainability

We believe animal welfare is a cornerstone of sustainable farming. Healthy, well-cared-for hens contribute to a more sustainable food system. Our cage-free environment allows hens to express natural behaviors such as roaming, nesting, and socializing, which supports both their well-being and long-term productivity.

Our Ongoing Commitment

Sustainability is an ongoing journey. At Stiebrs Farms, we are continually learning, improving, and investing in practices that benefit our hens, our land, and our community-because responsible farming today builds a stronger tomorrow.
