Helping People Help others; Tribes of Nations Outreach

F.A.I.T.H Gardening (Food Always In The Home) and Natural farming convention was held in Silang, Cavite under the group of Tribes of Nations Outreach. The main objective is to provide farmers under their spiritual communities to have a "food on the table" program composed of natural gardening and free-range chicken meat production.

Dr. Erwin Cruz provided the free technical seminar for them in servicing more than 70 communities scattered all over Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

Dr. Cruz emphasized the value of a good technical / skill to start a free-range production system in making the project successful!

Also the value of using the correct, healthy and disease free genetic F1 source as a platform for the project. Irregular chick quality can spell a downfall for any free-range project PLUS the disease contamination that dead chicks leave in your area as "SOUVENIR"or a bitter remembrance of the financial losses .

"Buy one, DEAD one quality of chicks will never give you good results"

Legitimate technical service and Quality product goes hand in hand

Legitimate technical service is part of our overall commitment to clients who get Farmers' Choice high quality free range chicks. This is one big advantage if you are getting Farmers' Choice!

Establishing educated farmers will eventually increase the quality of the final products and eventually, create successful farmers.

One very important advice to newbie farmers, START OUT SMALL. Profits come later if you do things properly. Don't rely on emotions and advertisements alone. Plan your project well.

Everything starts with Good quality "heavyweight" day old chicks!

The success of a free-range farmer starts with good genetics. With a certified F1day old chicks that has an average weight of 40 grams per chick, the farmer already has an advantage in meat quality and size.
Be sure to include in the planning of a free-range project the number one qualification, "40 GRAMMER Chicks!"
Small chicks might be "cheap" in price, at the start, but the additional feeds you need to raise them will cost more than what you save in day old chick cost. PLUS the quality of meat, better resistance to diseases and other stress factors is much better with a robust 40 grammer chick.

Our Motto: "An educated farmer for every quality chick sold!"
