...eggs -cage free? -free range? -organic? -pastured? -vegetarian? SO Many options, so much confusion...and by the way, what foes farm fresh actually mean? From us you are getting AWA Certified eggs that are picked several times a day from chickens that are on pasture where they get to be themselves - chickens. Roaming the fields, forage for insects, bugs and grains, take as many dust baths as they wish, be in full sunshine (or shade). Grass-fed/pastured hens are raised on pasture, as opposed to being kept in confinement and fed primarily grains. Eggs from pastured hens contain up to 20 times more healthy omega-3 fatty acids than those their less fortunate cousins, factory hens. Pastured hens diets are naturally complemented with bugs, earthworms, and other such critters that give their eggs a huge nutritious oomph. Pastured hens are usually much healthier and happier than their space-restricted and antibiotic-pumped industrial cousins. Pasturing is the traditional method of raising egg-laying hens and other poultry. It is ecologically sustainable, humane, and produces the tastiest, most nutritious eggs. Pastured eggs also have 10 percent less fat, 40 percent more vitamin A, and 34 percent less cholesterol than eggs obtained from factory farms. The welfare of our animals is our #1 priority. Which in turn gets you the freshest, healthiest and tastiest eggs and chickens for you and your family.
