About Us

In 1998 we began breeding Olde English Babydoll Sheep and started raising free range chickens.  It was immediately apparent that many people were looking to put "good" food on the table.  That is food that did not contain any chemicals, growth hormones or antibiotics.  And so we found our niche...raising animals grown using natural methods based on organic standards and selling organic feed and minerals.

We now raise about 2,000 free range chickens a year, feeding them organically certified chicken feed and raising them using a true free range method.  In fact, all our livestock are raised in this manner.  We use no chemical fertilizers or pesticides, no growth hormones and no un-necessary antibiotics.  We use what we sell and pride ourselves in the fact that our animals are happy and healthy with very few visits from the vet.   Currently living on the farm are sheep, goats, peacocks, chickens, llamas, donkeys, guinea fowl, rabbits, mini horse, and an assortment of dog and cats.

The Organic Feed Store is owned and operated by Rivers Critters Ranch, a working farm dedicated to the farming as the small farmers did years ago.  We are located in 50 miles west of the Twin Cities, in Hamburg MN.  Feel free to contact us or email with questions
