ABOUT LIBERTY DUCKS
Sonoma County Poultry
was founded in 1992 by Jim Reichardt, a fourth generation
duck farmer, in response to chefs’ demands for
a larger, meatier, more flavorful duck. Our “Liberty
Ducks” are a strain of Pekin Duck that was developed
in Denmark and is suited to a slower, less stressful
style of rearing. This results in a market age of about
9 weeks as opposed to six weeks for other commercially
grown birds.
Sonoma County has
the perfect climate for raising ducks in this style.
Our temperate climate allows us to raise Liberty Ducks
year-round, on straw litter, in an open environment with
a minimum of intrusion. Liberty Ducks receive no antibiotics
or hormones and are fed a diet that consists largely
of corn and other grains. The combination of all these
factors result in the best, most flavorful duck available
in the country today.
In addition to supplying
the finer Bay Area Restaurants with their fresh duck
needs, Sonoma County Poultry ships Liberty Ducks directly
to restaurants and individuals across the United States.
In the western US shipping is accomplished economically
by using UPS Ground services. Further east we must use
UPS Next Day Air Saver service at a higher cost.
Deliveries to San Francisco and the East Bay are available
on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Deliveries to Sonoma
and Napa Counties are on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
