King & Sons is one of the largest pastured poultry processors in the United States, and they're opening their doors for a behind-the-scenes tour of their processing plant.
Are you already operating an inspected plant and considering scaling your processing? Or are you thinking about building a plant on your farm? Come and learn directly from the King family on what works for them, and shorten your learning curve!
Not processing yourself, but curious about what goes on in the plant? Learn how to be the best processing customer ever, how to raise your birds well, and make harvest day go as smoothly as possible for you and the plant employees!

After the plant tours, we'll have an extended Q&A session followed by additional educational presentations on topics like:

Lunch is included in your ticket price!
