Environment
Minimize our environmental impact in our poultry and processing operations by efficient use of resources while preserving or enriching natural spaces.
We prioritize sustainability issues that we believe are most relevant to our business and stakeholders and where we believe we can have the most positive impact. Based on our strategy, we have organized our activities into five pillars:
Animal Care
Every hen, every day, receives the best possible care from our people, guided by science-based standards in a continuous improvement framework.
Health & Wellbeing
To be an “employer of choice” with unparalleled culture, and a reputation of having a safe and healthy working environment where colleagues feel valued.
Safe Nourishing Food
Offer safe and wholesome food, produced through an indisputable commitment to quality assurance.
Community Spirit
Communities in which we operate see and feel the impact of our charitable giving, colleague volunteerism, food assistance support, and leadership in agriculture literacy.
Community
A business can’t be part of a community without giving back to it. That’s why we support local community programs as well as local and national charities including these.
Parkinson Canada
Parkinson Canada provides support, education, and funds research to help find the cure for Parkinson's. We proudly sponsor the Parkinson Superwalk with our Eggstraordinary Hero contest.

make happy tummies
Burnbrae Farms is very proud to support the 'make happy tummies' program, an initiative from The Grocery Foundation. We’ve always believed that a nourished child is a happy child. When we fill a hungry tummy with wholesome food, we do more than just satisfy hunger—we help children focus on learning.
