The History of the Hatchery Industries

Join us for an exploration of the history of the poultry industry in New Washington, Ohio. Learn how it all began at the turn of the 20th century, when the first shipment of day-old chicks in the United States was sent by rail from New Washington in 1900. This milestone marked the founding of the commercial hatchery industry by Michael Uhl.
