Proudly Supporting Poultry In Connecticut Since 1906

Note – Poultry doesn’t mean just chickens!  We have subject matter experts in poultry of all sorts, including turkeys, geese, ducks, quail, pheasants, etc!

2023 has been the busiest year, for both layers and meat birds, we’ve seen in a very long time.  Check the Resources Section for a link to a presentation with updated notes done March 18, 2023 at Somers Public Library (second of two presentations that month, first at Ellington Agway).

The AEB is eggcited to share with you our newly updated Back-to-school tool kit!  The tool kit is equipped with resources to support school reopening and promotional events.  From REAL school recipes, staff training videos, new 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans egg nutrition messaging, social media content and more to bring excitement to school meals.   Please click on the image below to download your Back-to-school tool kit!

  Connecticut poultry industry. We represent family farms, producers both large and small, as well as industries that we rely on to do business in Connecticut. The CPA consists of a group of volunteers from many walks of life, from local entrepreneurs and corporations, to educators and hobbyists. We advocate for our member’s and the poultry industry’s interests by acting as their legislative and government liaison.

  We educate the public about our industry through outreach programs and youth education, as well aseducate our members on new technology, legislation and emerging markets. Ever the watchful association, we monitor and communicate with members, local officials and h obbyists to control and prevent infectious diseases among our flocks.

We serve, secondarily, as a social network for our members, facilitating better business and connecting people with local suppliers and hobbyists associated with our industry. Business, education, community events and other applicable opportunities are periodically presented to the association members during our meetings by other members, outside corporations and entrepreneurs.

CPA membership carries no dues requirements, however we rely on donations from the membership, fundraisers and the support from the American Egg Board. We invite anyone and everyone who has an interest in the poultry industry of Connecticut to join us at our regular meetings.
