🦆🥚 “𝑊ℎ𝑦 𝐷𝑜 𝐹𝑎𝑟𝑚 𝐸𝑔𝑔𝑠 𝐶𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑀𝑜𝑟𝑒?” 🥚🦆

Well… pull up a chair and let’s talk. 🤍

When you buy farm eggs, you’re not just buying what’s in the shell.

You’re buying:

🌾 Non-commercial feed
🌿 Scratch grains, greens, and bugs they hunt themselves
🏡 Hens with room to roam instead of rows of cages
🪺 Hand-gathered eggs — every single morning
❄️ Careful storage and small-batch handling
💛 Time, labor, and stewardship

DID YOU KNOW:

• Grocery store eggs can be weeks old before they hit the shelf.
• Store eggs are washed in a way that removes their natural protective bloom — which is why they must be refrigerated.
• Pasture-raised hens often lay eggs with darker, richer yolks because of a more varied diet.
• Smaller flocks mean better care — but they also mean we can’t compete with industrial pricing.

Around here, we believe if the Lord entrusted us with the animals, we ought to treat them right.

Farm eggs cost more because they are more — more care, more quality, more intention.

And truth be told?
Once you taste the difference, it’s hard to go back.

We aren’t trying to be the cheapest.
We’re trying to be faithful stewards.

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters…” — Colossians 3:23 🤍
