Add chicken bones, chopped veggies, herbs, salt, and peppercorns to a large pot.

Add enough water to cover everything — about 12 cups (3 quarts).

Place over high heat, cover, and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce heat and let simmer for 2-3 hours, or longer for a richer broth.

Once chicken and vegetables have broken down and liquid is reduced, remove from heat and let cool.

Use tongs or a skimmer to remove large pieces of vegetables and chicken.

Pour broth into a mesh strainer set over a bowl to catch small bits of herbs and bone.

Ladle into jars or other reusable containers. If freezing, leave 2 inches at the top.

Let cool to room temperature before placing in fridge or freezer.
