General Questions
How do I get my shares?
I missed my pick up. I'm going to be out of town. What do I do?
I can get a rotisserie chicken at Costco, Target, Walmart for X why do you charge Y?
Great question! Here are a few reasons.
- Those chickens are sold at a loss as an incentive to purchase more items at the store
- Our Organic, pasture raised, soy & corn free birds require more exspensive feed to suppliment there foraging.
- Our birds are rotated to fresh pasture daily. This is a HUGE difference from "Free Ranged Organic" which usually is still confines birds to large dirty buildings.
- Our heritage slow growing birds take 3-4 times longer to grow to weight. This increase costs on feed and labor. but makes a healthier better product
- We pay all our employees a living wage starting at $15. Buying our product help create sustainable jobs.
- If you compare us to other organic chicken you'll actually find we are cheaper than most and on average tend to do more.
Will you take trade or let me work on the farm?
I cant afford the CSA I can't work, I have nothing to trade, and no disernable skills or talents. What can I do?
Oh wow.....
We are sure you're an amazing person, & have many talents.
We do offer cheaper weekly options starting at only $14.99, but we also understand that some people cant commit to that. If you are really passionate about eating better and more sustainably send us a message we will try and figure something out.
Payment & Delivery
What forms of payment does the shop have?

Hey I'm on a weekly subscription and want to cancel getting your delicious chicken, also I think you're handsome. What do I do?
Thank you so much, you're not too bad yourself.
And don't worry cancel anytime. We wont take it personally.
Start Dates
I understand that the start date of each CSA share is flexible, based on seasonal conditions and product availability. I am aware that TunTum BlackHill will communicate via email to inform all members of updates and the official start date, and that it is my responsibility to contact the farm via email if I am not receiving notifications near the projected CSA start date.
