The 2015 Chicken Media Summit, sponsored by the National Chicken Council and the U.S. Poultry & Egg Association, was held in late spring on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. The summit brought together about 30 members from national and local media, bloggers and registered dieticians.
The attendees saw firsthand the entire process, from egg to fork, about how chickens are hatched, raised, and processed for food. The group toured a Perdue Farms hatchery, a family farm that raises chickens for Mountaire, an Amick Farms processing plant and the Perdue Innovation Center.
