What Tree-Range® Farms does

Tree-Range® Farms is a private regenerative agriculture company headquartered in Northfield, Minnesota, that operates the proprietary Poultry-Centered Regenerative Agriculture (PCRA) System to produce slow-growth, antibiotic-free chicken. The system raises birds in forested paddocks under a tree canopy — described as a "jungle-like" habitat — where they forage on plants, sprouted grain, and bugs, with chicks brooded for four weeks and processed at approximately 70 days (10 weeks) at a single facility in Stacyville, Iowa. All farms in the network are family owned, range from 8 to 110 acres, and are required to meet standardized minimum requirements (1.5 acres, barn, fenced paddocks, feed bins, freshwater, manure management), raising approximately 1,500 birds per flock, three times per season, for 4,500 birds per farm per year. Production is seasonal, running from February through October/November.

The company's core revenue stream is the sale of Tree-Range® Chicken across three primary channels: (1) direct-to-consumer home delivery via a partnership with 99 Counties (nationwide continental U.S.), (2) retail shelf placement at food co-ops and independent natural food grocers across Minnesota and Iowa, and (3) wholesale distribution through partners such as The Good Acre and Ron Mar Foods, alongside direct restaurant and food service accounts. Pricing is not publicly disclosed but is positioned as premium relative to conventional chicken. The company is led by CEO Reginaldo Haslett-Marroquin, has approximately 6 employees, and is actively planning product line extensions into elderberries (2026) and hazelnuts (2028), with parallel pursuit of operating partners in Southern U.S. states to enable year-round production and an egg product.

Revenue model

1. Chicken Product Sales: Tree-Range® Farms generates revenue through the sale of regeneratively raised chicken products. Products are sold via three primary routes: directly to consumers through home delivery, to retailers and restaurants through wholesale distribution, and to wholesale/institutional buyers. Revenue is transactional and consumption-based, driven by per-unit chicken product pricing.
2. Wholesale Distribution: Products are sold in bulk to wholesale distributors (The Good Acre, Ron Mar Foods) and directly to retail co-ops and grocers, who then resell to end consumers. This B2B wholesale stream constitutes a significant revenue channel.

Direct peers

• Joyce Farms: Joyce Farms raises heritage-breed, all-natural, and pasture-raised proteins (including chicken) sold to chefs and natural food retailers. It is comparable to Tree-Range on regenerative/heritage positioning, foodservice relationships, and a strong provenance narrative.
• Vital Farms: Vital Farms is the leading US pasture-raised egg and now chicken company, selling through natural food retailers and grocery chains nationwide. It is the closest scaled analog to Tree-Range's mission of pasture-raised, transparent, premium poultry.
• White Oak Pastures: White Oak Pastures is a vertically integrated, regenerative, zero-waste farm in Georgia raising pasture-raised poultry, beef, and other proteins. It is directly comparable to Tree-Range on regenerative agriculture, vertical integration, and diversified premium protein.
• Farmer Focus: Farmer Focus is a 100% organic, humanely raised chicken brand owned by a cooperative of family farmers, distributed in natural and conventional grocery. The farmer-network model and organic/humane positioning are closely comparable to Tree-Range's PCRA system.
• Cooks Venture: Cooks Venture raises slow-growth, pasture-raised heritage-breed chickens with a regenerative and animal-welfare focus, sold through DTC and select grocers. It overlaps with Tree-Range on slow-growth genetics, regenerative narrative, and premium positioning.
• Pete and Gerry's: Pete and Gerry's is a network of small family farms producing organic, pasture-raised eggs (and increasingly chicken) sold through natural food and mainstream grocery. Its small-family-farm cooperative model mirrors Tree-Range's PCRA network and shared mission.
• Mary's Organic Chicken (Mary's Poultry): Mary's produces organic, free-range, and pasture-raised chicken for retail and foodservice, with heritage genetics and air-chilled processing. Like Tree-Range, it competes in the premium natural foods channel with a slower-growth, welfare-forward product.

Broad incumbents

• Bell & Evans: Bell & Evans is an established premium chicken brand known for air-chilled, 100% all-natural, and slower-growing breeds sold in mainstream grocery. It is a broader incumbent competing in the same premium-chicken whitespace as Tree-Range but with national scale and conventional retail penetration.
• Organic Valley: Organic Valley is a large farmer-owned cooperative producing organic dairy, produce, and pasture-raised eggs and meat. It is a broader incumbent that competes with Tree-Range at the co-op and natural foods shelf with a similarly cooperative, family-farmer-based model.

Emerging players

• Stone Barns Center / Blue Hill at Stone Barns: Stone Barns is a pioneering regenerative farm and food education center that produces pasture-raised poultry among other proteins. While not a commercial peer at Tree-Range's scale, it shapes the regenerative-poultry narrative and validates the category Tree-Range operates in.
