About Franchesca Duval
Franchesca Duval is the Head Chicken Wrangler at Alchemist Farm in Sebastopol California. She is always tinkering with chicken genetics and pushes the edges of what is possible in the world of egg color and texture. She believes that beautifully colored eggs capture the imagination of humans and gently invites them to ask where their food comes from.
Alchemist Farm is a humane chicken and quail hatchery that is pioneering a marriage of humane treatment of poultry with regenerative agriculture.
Franchesca's farm demonstrates that a family business can thrive while doing right ecologically with a little creativity and a lot of heart.
They are the only chicken hatchery in the United States that:
*Runs on 100% clean renewable energy.
*Is 100% zero waste and has all plastic free shipments.
*Does not kill its male chicks upon hatch, they are donated to local impoverished families who raise them for food.
*Keeps all of its breeding groups out on pasture and not in breeding cages.
*Breeds for temperament. They have 35 roosters on our farm and their young children can walk right up to any of them and interact. No aggressive birds stay in their breeding program.
