Just in time for beautiful Labor Day Weekend barbecuing weather, Kellie Brook Farm has fresh chickens for sale at their farm stand Thursday September 3 - Sunday September 6
The chickens are running from about 3.5 lbs. to 5.5 lbs.
They will also have frozen chicken & turkey parts next week, available at the Exeter and Kingston Farmers’ Markets as well as their farm stand.

Cutting up a whole chicken for the first time seems intimidating, but it turns out to be really easy and pretty similar to carving a cooked whole bird. And once you learn the process, you have a skill that makes local poultry really accessible, gives you a lot of flexibility in the kitchen, and can save you money! (I totally mangled it the first time I did it, but it was still edible and delicious!)
Here are a few links to videos illustrating the process:
