Feedmill operations at
Ellerslie Farms
Originally constructed in 1982, our Feedmill has undergone considerable upgrades over the years. We now operate an organic mill and a conventional mill, under an automated system that delivers both rearing and layer mash specifically formulated by a nutritionist to support our hens throughout their development and production.
