All about ...
Egg Farming
- Local eggs get from our farm to your table in 4 to 7 days.
- Hens are housed in clean, well-lit, well-ventilated barns and fed a balanced diet of grains, vitamins, minerals and plenty of water.
- The candling process makes sure the egg shell is clean and without cracks and the egg white is thick and the yolk well centred.
- Do you know why it is important to keep eggs stored in the refrigerator and in the original carton?
