3 Feathers Emu News

Raising emus is, at times, great fun and as we learned last week, also truly heartbreaking. But living in rural Lewis County has also allowed our family to grow and learn so much more.   Whether it is harvesting honey (our first year we were overrun by bees from the hive coming to take their honey back !!), making apple cider (a sticky job), or growing and preserving our own food for winter (you can grow too much kale), the days are never dull.  Thank you to our customers for 12 years of fun.  Looking forward to many, many more....

We had a temporary interruption in our email services today, October 16, during an upgrade.  But good news:  all is working now.    If you emailed us today and do not get a response, please try again and accept our apologies for any trouble.   Thanks, Your customer support team-  i.e. Janean and Tony!  

We sell our emu oil, meat, and handmade products from our farm and in stores, but also at local farmers markets, events, and festivals. We were unable to attend may markets and events this year and we missed seeing everyone. We can't wait to see you all next year. #fridayfunfact #emuoilisgoodforyou #buylocal #farmingisfun #discoverlewiscounty #chehalisfarmersmarket #centraliafarmersmarket #toledofarmersmarket #tumwaterfarmersmarket #chehalisgarlicfestival

Fun Friday Emu Fact: So last week I told you how tasty emu meat is. But... it is also good for you!! Thank you to the AEA for this wonderful meat comparison chart. You can see that emu meat is very lean and high in protein, making it a nutritious alternative, especially for those folks with alpha gal (a tick borne allergy to mammalian meat) or other food sensitivities. #3Feathersemus #emumeatisgoodforyou #emutheotherredmeat #alphagal #farmingisfun #fridayfunfact

We raise emus for their emu oil, which we use to make all our products. But we also sell emu meat. Most people thing emu meat is a white meat like chicken or turkey, but instead it is more like beef. It is also super nutritious. We have USDA meat for sale in steaks or as ground meat. If you haven't tried it before, you are missing out. #3Feathersemus #farmingisfun #emutheotherredmeat #hearthealthymeat #fridayfunfact
