Farm Fresh Brown Eggs from Free Range Hens - $3/dozen
Offering
limited quantities of fresh brown eggs collected and refrigerated at
least daily from heritage breeds of hens (Rhode Island Reds and Light
Brahmas) that forage from our pastures every day. We adhere to
sustainable principles in the management of our pastures and chickens.
Our hens are out and about free will during the daytime, and are only
cooped at night for their safety. Besides free access to nature, the
hens' diets are supplemented with natural grains (corn, oats, flax) and
mineral balanced vegetarian layer crumbles feed mix. They have free
choice access to oyster shells to maintain shell integrity. Hens tend to
be seasonal layers and despite the heat lamps, we always have more eggs
in the warmer months than during the cold of winter. Feel free to call
anytime to check on availability. Conveniently located 1/2 mile south of
Rt 33 in North Howell, NJ.
FRESH BROWN EGGS FROM HAPPY,
TRULY FREE-RANGING, PASTURE FED HENS. The deep orange-yellow yolks
reflect the quality of the diet of these hens. Compared to conventional
factory farmed eggs, farm fresh eggs like these tend to be richer in
Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids, lower in cholesterol and
saturated fat, and have more Vitamins A, E, and Beta-Carotene. Taste the
difference for yourself!! In summer/fall we also sell some homegrown
fruits and vegetables.
