Dear Mr. Kruczek:

Pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Vital Farms, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby requests that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) accelerate the effective date of the above-referenced Registration Statement on Form S-1 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) and declare the Registration Statement effective as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, on July 30, 2020, or as soon thereafter as possible, or at such other time as its legal counsel, Cooley LLP, may request by telephone to the staff of the Commission. This request for acceleration is subject, however, to your receiving a telephone call prior to such time from our legal counsel, Cooley LLP, confirming this request.
