Biographical History
The Wampler family emerged upon the American poultry industry in the early twentieth century changing the industry practices and beliefs. As a result of their success, the Wamplers became one of the most influential families in Rockingham County, Virginia and helped the Shenandoah Valley garner the moniker, "Turkey Capital of the Nation."
Charles W. Wampler, and later his son, Charles Jr., revolutionized the poultry industry with innovations to every step of production, from egg to market.
