Not Going Back
After being housed in conventional cages for decades, you’d think layers

Au pays des géants
Entrer dans l’une des fosses à fumier d’une ferme avicole de plus d’un
million de pondeuses est une expérience qu’on n’oublie pas. Imaginez :
dix rangées de 585 pieds de long de monticules de fumier qui ressemblent
à des termitières s’élançant en hauteur.
America’s Egg Powerhouse
Standing in one of the manure pits at a 1.3-million-layer egg farm can be quite the experience.
Yorkshire Valley Farms
The story of Yorkshire Valley Farms – the largest and fastest-growing
organic poultry business in Canada – is a tale of true synergies.
Mike Pickard
More than 30 years ago, Mike Pickard was new to Saskatchewan and new to
chicken farming – but the new life he started around that time turned
out to be the right one.

Kurt Siemens
By his own admission, Kurt Siemens is a man who loves to learn. From
every challenge, he says there is a lesson to be learned and he gains
new skills that help him meet the next challenge and improve how he
manages his egg farm.
