It is a slow-growing breed that takes two times longer to mature than most modern commercialized birds where conventional poultry producers prioritize unnaturally fast growth without consideration for welfare or quality.
For restaurants, LaBelle Patrimoine can be ordered through Chefs Warehouse, Fells Point Wholesale Meats and Crescent, or by contacting [email protected].

LaBelle Patrimoine is part of Global Animal Partnership's Better Chicken Project, a collaboration establishing a research-based framework for re-inventing the modern-day broiler chicken, and the Better Chicken Commitment, signaling to consumers concerned about where their food comes from and how it is produced, that they are meeting rising expectations for animal welfare, sustainability, and food quality. The brand was also recently designated as Regeneratively Raised by the USDA.
