Although dogs may be considered man’s best friend, it’s no secret that poultry is a favourite meal for many. The domestication and cultivation of poultry have played a significant role in society’s growth and prosperity.
Poultry Day is a celebration of this ancient tradition of animal husbandry, which has made delicious turkeys, abundant chicken, and eggs of every variety a staple on tables worldwide. If you’re a poultry enthusiast looking for an excuse to wing it and have a good time, keep an eye out for Poultry Day!
History of Poultry Day
The holiday began in 1951 in the small town of Versailles, Ohio, and had grown in popularity each year. What started as a single-day event eventually became a full weekend celebration, complete with barbecue pits, beer tents, and even the world’s largest omelette pan.
Poultry Day was a crucial event for Versailles, Ohio, as it brought in a significant influx of people and income. The festival took place in Heritage Park, a 40-acre space that included shelter houses, ponds, sports fields, and a walking track. The event’s proceeds helped fund the park’s maintenance and make donations to important charities, totalling over $700,000 in the past ten years before the infection.
