Pastured Organically Raised Eggs
Our fresh local eggs can’t be beat! We currently have 6 varieties of egg layers on our farm, laying delicious nutritious colored eggs.
For most of the year, our chickens get to enjoy unlimited access to the great outdoors! They are rotated on fresh pasture and are provided with shelter in our mobile hen house (a tiny house we designed and built)! In addition to the benefits of foraging on plants and insects, our hens are fed certified organic and Non-GMO feed. We also feed them veggies from our garden. Chickens love kale! With access to fresh greens and the best feed possible, our eggs are superior in taste and quality. When compared to commercially raised eggs, pastured eggs have been found to contain:

Freshness
Eggs at the grocery store may already be 2 months old. Our eggs are fresh. Eggs you receive from our farm are laid within the past week! We date each carton with the date the egg was laid not put in the carton. We hand pick our eggs throughout the day and inspect each egg. We go the extra step and keep our hen's living conditions clean to help keep our hens healthy and our eggs clean. We do not wash clean eggs. Sometimes we need to wash our eggs which is okay. Since our eggs are fresh, they still have longer refrigerated shelf life versus the store bought washed eggs. Eggs have a natural antibacterial protective coating called a "bloom". This bloom protects the egg from odors and from bacteria penetrating the shell, prolonging the freshness and quality of our eggs. Ready to try our eggs?
