Welcome to "Where Hope Grows", a podcast curated to celebrate the inspiring stories of ranchers, land stewards, and others working on the frontlines of the regenerative revolution. Inspired by the infinite wisdom of Mother Nature, our stories will ground you in a deep and profound way to the architecture of the natural world. With a recurring theme of collaborating and working within Her design, we are gifted with the reminder that Mother Nature's capacity for healing is intimately connected to our own. These are stories about regeneration, gratitude, and connection. This is where hope grows.

A Better Bird: The Rebirth of Force of Nature Chicken
What happened to Force of Nature’s original chicken program—and why did we take it off the shelves?
In this episode of Where Hope Grows, Taylor, Robby, and Katie break down the bold decision to pause our poultry program and the cross-country journey that followed. The result? A re-invented, radically improved, and welfare-focused solution we call A Better Bird.
You’ll hear what makes our new chicken different:
Slow-growing, heritage breeds (never Cornish Cross)
100% organic feed—no synthetic chemicals, fillers, or byproducts
Unrestricted access to pasture, clean environments, and silvopasture systems
Third-party animal welfare certified and zero use of antibiotics or mRNA vaccines
Why does it matter? Because conventional chicken isn’t what it seems—fast-grown, nutrient-poor, and raised in confinement. Force of Nature’s new program is built to nourish you, respect the animal, and heal the land.
If you’re going to eat chicken, eat the best chicken possible.
