The pheasants of MacFarlane Farm are well recognized for their superior quality and consistency and the Farm was proud to provide the pheasant served to President Obama and his guests at the Inaugural Luncheon on January 20th of 2009.

Since 1929, MacFarlane Farm in Janesville, Wisconsin has been raising naturally grown, free-range pheasants. Dedicated to the principles of producing the finest birds in a sustainable manner, the Farm never uses growth hormones or animal byproducts.

Pheasants Come to America

Pheasants are not indigenous to the United States. The first pheasants were brought here from Great Britain in the late 1800's and shipments of eggs continued into the early 1900's. It was soon discovered that pheasants thrived in the U.S. By the 1920’s pheasant hunting had become quite popular and Kenneth MacFarlane went to New York to attend a Game Rearing school. After completing the course, Kenneth returned to Wisconsin. In 1928, Kenneth imported eggs from Gaybird Game Farm in England, and in 1929, he formed MacFarlane Pheasant Farm where he bred pheasants for hunt clubs.

In the late 1980's the decision was made to enter into the dressed pheasant business. A commitment was made to produce fresh dressed pheasants every week of the year. In 1994, a state of the art facility was constructed. During the late 1990's and into this new century, MacFarlane’s focus has been to make the farm more efficient while continuing to be progressive and innovative in its approach.

The 80 years of experience help MacFarlane Farm raise the best pheasants and other gamebirds on the market, and allow it to supply customers with the best service as well. They are rightfully proud of all they’ve accomplished and are always willing to share the ideals and ideas that have made their business a success.
