The USDA FSIS has worked on a proposed salmonella framework that would implement rules and regulations in place for producers to test and seek to eradicate the presence of salmonella in their poultry products. If implemented, this proposal would affect poultry producers with added costs, potential onsite inspections, and the burden of additional equipment and infrastructure.

Eggs and poultry are some of the most consumed products in the country. Farmers can build a sustainable operation selling these products directly to their community. It is crucial for your Farm to build a consistent, loyal base of Buyers who want sustainably raised poultry products. 

Jerry and Janelle Stokesberry have been growing food together since the 70’s. “We were just kids. We both did a lot of vegetable gardening growing up, so we decided to change it up and raise fruit and meat. In 2013 we decided to go all-in on our dream, farming full time and providing food to other people.”
