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
