All market poultry for Washington County have been ordered and arrival dates have been set. Please note that the following dates are the week we expect the birds to arrive. The birds will be shipped and available for pick up at Heritage Cooperative located at 219 Third Street Marietta. Members will be notified once birds ship with an approximate time for pick up, however this time needs to remain flexible as shipping times and days may vary. Members should be ready to receive birds and bring something to transport them home in. Pens at home should be cleaned and disinfected and ready for new arrivals. It is also good practice to call the feed store to order feed before you receive the birds. This allows the store to be sure they have feed in stock for you when you arrive. The following are the days that birds will ship. Market turkey- May 20, market chicken- July 8, and market duck- July 8. If you have questions or need additional information, please contact our office at 740-376-7431.
