Yellow Bell Farm

Hi, Katie Bogdanffy here - third generation farmer. I grew up with an appreciation for farming, chickens, and feeding our community. I am continuing the tradition today on my own farm where we specialize in producing fresh, delicious, hand raised and hand prepared Cornish, heritage chicken, and pastured heirloom eggs. In 2014 I purchased overgrown farmland, revitalized it and built Yellow Bell farm from the ground up. We are located in Red Hook, NY (Dutchess County).

Our farming mission is to provide the best chicken and eggs to our customers in a sustainable way. We never use any drugs, we are a 100% antibiotic free farm. Our chickens are happy and healthy. We never trim beaks, or wings. Our chickens live humane and natural lives. On Yellow Bell Farm we source feed from a local feed mill, the grains are grown locally. This helps more local farms to thrive and creates a low carbon footprint.

Our egg yolks are a deep golden orange a reward of healthy foraging hens. Every day we hand gather our eggs from the nests at 8am, 12pm, and a last collection when we close up our hens & roosters in the evening. Our chickens are protected from predators during the day by solar powered electric fences and safe inside their houses at night.

Yellow Bell Farm chickens are raised from day old chicks on the farm.
For our meat chickens we slaughter our chicken on farm and this not only eliminates the travel stress for the animals (if they had to be transported off farm to an outside slaughterhouse) but it allows for us ensure our chickens are handled humanely.
Our farm slaughter facility is NYS Licensed and inspected. This is a NYS branch program of USDA. We also receive USDA Food Safety Inspections. What makes Yellow Bell Farm chicken so special?
The attention to detail, expertise, and love that goes into producing delicious chicken for families to enjoy. Our customers tell us they can taste the difference!
