Raising chickens more efficiently is a huge part of what we do. Growing more. Using less. For farmers, it’s that simple. #DowntoEarthAL

Poultry production is extremely local. All farms are usually located within a 50-mile radius of feed mills and processing facilities which cuts down carbon emissions.
Happy #EarthDay! #DowntoEarthAL

Happy Easter from APEA!
During the Easter season, Americans scramble to grocery stores to purchase more than 3 billion eggs to eat and decorate. Did you know in Alabama, we produce 500 million table eggs per year? #ManyFlocksOneGoal #ALPoultry
Born and raised in Costa Rica, Jorge Flores, who is the fresh superintendent for Wayne Farms in Union Springs, enjoys having opportunities to educate employees to become more efficient but also enjoys learning things himself. #ManyFlocksOneGoal #ALPoultry alabamapoultry.org/post/taki…

Fresh fruit and veggie season is just around the corner. Check out how Grits and Gouda recipe blogger Kathleen Phillips is using those fresh fruits and veggies to create protein-rich dishes (and a few that can satisfy a sweet or snacking tooth)! #ALPoultry alabamapoultry.org/post/made…
