Burger Craving, Tick Bite, Ostrich Farm | Charleston News

A Kentucky man with a life-altering tick-borne allergy can’t eat red meat—but he turned his loss into a booming business. Brent Williams, also a nutritionist, started Alpha Roost Farms to raise ostriches, whose lean, iron-rich meat tastes like beef and satisfies those craving burgers. With demand soaring from alpha-gal sufferers who’ve gone years without their favorite meal, the farm is expanding its herd—and bringing back joy to people who thought they’d lost it all. After a failed 90s ostrich boom, this new wave proves that innovation and resilience can turn personal hardship into something delicious for others.
