Product Information
Great Taste 2-star 2025
Great Bristish Food Gold Award 2025
Our free-range whole chicken is slow grown on our family farm in Staffordshire to the highest welfare standards. Naturally tender, full of flavour and rich in protein, it’s a delicious, wholesome choice with depth and succulence you can really taste.
Our chickens roam freely on established English pasture, grazing on grasses and clovers, with access to perches, shelter, food and water. Reared for longer, this careful approach delivers consistent flavour and texture – bringing back how chicken used to taste.
Packington Free Range is a B Corp certified, ethical family business with complete provenance and traceability, committed to high welfare and environmental sustainability.
Free-range, happy and healthy – always.

Brand details
At Packington Free Range we're B-Corp Certified and firmly believe that what is good for the animals and the land will naturally be good for us and better for our customers. This is the philosophy of our great grandfather before us and we believe passionately in provenance, sustainable and ethical farming which fuels our drive to create an environmentally sound and welfare orientated farm.
Our farms are in various environmental schemes, and we believe in farming in a way that increases regeneration and biodiversity, all having a positive impact on the land and on the animals. Regular surveys on our farms show that the number of different birds and wildlife species increases year on year. We have installed solar panels and use bio-mass boilers to help further reduce our carbon footprint. All of this allows us to continue to farm the land here, in Staffordshire, for generations to come.
It's this simple philosophy that enables us to produce the most succulent, richly flavoured meat that we know you'll enjoy.
Rob and Alec Mercer.
