Sale: Chickens are seasonal, and laying increases in the spring. We encourage you to adapt your eating habits also, and use more eggs in March - June. To this end, we've put eggs on spring sale They'll be back up to $4 when the chickens start to lay off in the summer.

Our hens are proud and capable, pecking scratching and laying delicious egg. They range the pastures in the summer, following the cattle and sheep. In the winter they hang indoors with the pigs.

Compared to storebought eggs, the whites are thicker and the yolks darker (it varies some bird to bird and through the seasons). Check out the nutrition stats from farmer Joel Salatin (who raises layers similarly). Notice the folate - this makes pastured eggs great for expectant moms.
