Once you have the chance to eat organic chicken, it is difficult to return to the conventional. I say this from experience.

Jefferson Heatwole and Shenandoah Valley Organics (SVO) are trying to affordably provide organic chicken. They have an innovative, farmer-focused business model and encourage healthy eating and cultural awareness.

The company is growing in number of farms, chickens, and sales. In fact they have an exclusive brand developed just for Costco.

SVO operates out of the beautiful Shenandoah valley in Virginia. Jefferson and I demystify the chicken industry and elaborate on their business model:

What certified organic farms look like
Antibiotic free chicken vs organic chicken
Health differences of organic vs conventional chicken
Quality of life differences for the chickens!
Teamwork and relationships with independent farmers on over 25 farms (24:40)

Why is organic turkey so expensive? (31:45)
