Organic Non GMO Wholesome Feed?

[MrsADW]

I also have been looking for NON GMO chicken feeds and FINALLY found this site tonight: http://www.scratchandpeck.com They JUST became Non GMO project certified in July! Hopefully you live some where close to a retailer b/c for us to ship in WI costs $19 per item! YIKES. We are thinking of taking a trip down there and buying massive bulk to save on shipping costs. Hope this helps!

In Lancaster, PA, you can get certified organic non-GMO grains from McGeary Organics (http://mcgearyorganics.com/).
A couple of months ago, we stopped buying chicken pellets and started feeding our layers and broilers cracked whole grains from McGeary and other ingredients from Countryside (http://www.countrysideorganics.com/). We purchased a Bravo grain grinder through Premier (http://www.premier1supplies.com/detail.php?prod_id=61324). It will grind about 20 pounds of grain at a time. We make fresh batches a couple times a week

Hi,

I buy organic chicken feed from Big Sky Organic Feed, Fort Benton, Montana. Others are right though - it is about twice as much $$ wise for the organic, than the regular feed, but since I don't trust our food production companies any more, I will buy organic and have the peace of mind that I am doing the best that I can for my family and my birds.

Here is the link: http://www.montanaflour.com/store/organic-feed/

Now, here is my question: WHERE can I buy NON-GMO meat-bird chicks, which means the parents must be fed non-gmo feeds.

On their page they say organic but not that it was not GMO seed. I have learned that GMO seed can be grown organic and sold as organic.

No it can not be sold as organic. It is expressly forbidden in the NOP and every Organic certification program.

If it is certified organic it cannot contain GMO. It is my understanding, however, that foods labeled non-GMO are not necessarily organic (unless labeled as such).
