Foster Compassion

About Me

As the largest poultry producer in the Western United States, Foster Farms emphasizes a commitment to advancing animal welfare and product quality. East Bay Animal Advocates, an animal protection organization in California, conducted an investigative rescue of the chicken meat operations of Foster Farms in 2005. Each week Foster Farms slaughters five million chickens for food. Foster Farms’ poultry products are produced under a set of conditions vastly different than what the term 'humane' reasonably and objectively represents.Visit www.FosterFacts.net today!

People to Take Action Today!1. Urge Foster Farms to improve conditions for birds and stop misleading the public.2. Ask the USDA to protect poultry under the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act.
