We breed our own ducks, so we have a breeding stock, we get their eggs hatched, then raise the ducklings. We do this to keep the integrity of the Pekin Duck line. Our breeding flock comes from Grimaud breeders from France. They have rigorous control over maintaining the healthiest bird that’s true to the traditional Pekin Duck breed.

Raised without the use of antibiotics.

Fed a diet of 100% Canadian whole grains.

Our ducks are raised in open-sided fresh air barns. They get a cross-wind of fresh air, even in the winter (they have built-in down jackets)

They get fresh sawdust bedding every day to keep their feet dry and germ free.

Raised on a five-generation family farm.

Ducks have unlimited access to fresh water direct from the aquifer, and their feed.

We never force feed our ducks. They choose to eat when they want to eat.

Processed in our Provincially Inspected facilities located on the farm in Yarrow.

We believe in full-cycle farming: we use sawdust that’s leftover from sawmills, we sell every part of the duck for zero-waste, then we allow the compost (sawdust and droppings) to decompose and they’re used as fertilizer on blueberry farms, and the feathers are sold to jacket and bedding manufacturers.

We are partnering with Sysco and bringing two new pack sizes to market on our Duck Breast and our Duck Leg/Thigh Quarter. These are now available in a 2/12 count or 24 portions to a case.

We know that cash flow and bottom line profits are front of mind for operators and these smaller pack sizes will make it to make it easier for the operator to carry less overhead cost and turn inventory.

Our whole duck will continue to be offered in a 6/5.5 lb avg case size.
