Episode Synopsis

Kim Kiss owns and operates Grassland Poultry alongside her husband Brian, just outside Wellington. Grassland Poultry is a free-range chicken farm where they breed, hatch, raise, and process the chickens completely on-farm. In this episode, Kim explains why she and Brian chose to pivot from cattle to chickens, how their free-range chicken farm runs a little differently than most, and why the Sommerlad breed is perfect for Australian conditions.   Local Land Service Mixed Farming Advisor, Claudia Hinrichsen, sat down with Kim for a cup of tea and a chat about chooks.   Resources and links: Grassland Poultry website   Nominate a Mate: If you'd like to nominate a mate (or yourself) as a potential future guest on the podcast, you can do so here: Nominate a Mate for 'Seeds for Success'.   Connect: Central West LLS website Central West LLS on Facebook Central West LLS on X Central West LLS on YouTube   The views contained in this podcast series are not necessarily endorsed by Central West Local Land Services.
