"Not from China"

So hard to find meal worms that are not from China! The ones from China smell so bad and I think half of them the birds do not eat. These mealworms from the USA do not smell bad at all and they have a nicer color to them and not as shriveled up !

"Ducks love them too"

Not just for chickens, ducks love them too and grown in USA.

"Excellent Quality"

Very pleased with these mealworms! They are good size and very fresh and my birds love them. So nice to be able to support a USA business with a USA grown product. Thank you to the seller for offering these!

"Bigger and hardier"

These mealworms are bigger and hardier than others. Being made in the United States gives me the comfort that I’m feeding wholesome mealworms. We have 3 pairs of Eastern Bluebirds plus all the other variety of birds that love to eat them. It’s good knowing that they are all eating the best mealworms available!

Small Family (Indoor) Farmers in Oregon

We're not just another mealworm importer buying products in bulk from China and repackaging them here. We're a small family farm in Eugene, Oregon raising mealworms on agricultural waste (wheat bran), barely spoiled bread from the food pantry, and locally grown potatoes. We process and package everything we sell in our own facility.

 

We sell to families who raise chickens, ducks, and other poultry in their backyards. Birders looking to attract specific species of wild birds buy our mealworms. Gardeners use our fertilizer to grow food, flowers, and other ornamental plants at their home. But that's not all. We're on a mission to get rid of plastic waste for good. Learn more About Us.

Our Mission to Reduce Plastic Waste

 Plastics make life in the modern world much better in so many ways. But, we don’t need to use plastics for single use packaging. That’s why we ship all of our products in certified compostable and resealable bioplastic (not PLA) bags. In addition, we’ve teamed up with 1% for the Planet to financially support groups that are fighting against plastic pollution with at least 1% of our sales. We hope you agree with us and will join our cause to end plastic pollution.
