King Cole Ducks Ltd.
Gold
For over 70 years and four generations, our family’s passion has been solely focused on producing duck products of the highest quality using time-honoured, natural farming practices.
Clean Label Ingredients - Good food is clean food; “clean” of additives and unnatural elements that affect the integrity of taste and nutrition. Our clean label: No hormones or growth stimulants. No food colouring or additives, phosphate free and gluten free. Nitrates are used in several fully-cooked products to ensure a 30-day refrigerated shelf-life, standard in North American food retail.
Animal Welfare & Humane Handling - King Cole has long been heralded for its leadership and stewardship in the area of animal care. Ducks are raised free run in large spacious barns with plenty of fresh air ventilation, unlimited water and natural feed. Many barns are bedded down with recycled fresh wood shavings daily and others are washed out for maximum sanitary conditions.
Leaders in Recycling - Good things come from reducing, reusing, and recycling. King Cole’s goal has been 100% usage of the product we produce and our waste is an important part of that sustainable story.
We purchase wood shavings from local wood-working companies to use as bedding on a variety of our farm locations. At the end of each cycle, barns are cleaned thoroughly and the manure-laden shavings are removed to our compost site. Twenty years of composting experience allows us to create a clean, odourless, consistent, all-natural soil enhancer that boasts a neutral PH level. Gardeners and green trades alike will vouch for the “growing power” of King Cole’s duck compost. Our own land is farmed with cash crops that receive a bi-annual dose of duck fertilizer for increased crop yields.
In addition, two-thirds of our water is completely recycled and used to clean the barns as part of our intensive sanitation protocols.
