Pasture Raised Chicken Eggs
Green Grass, Clean Water and Lots of Bugs, Naturally
Eggs are close to the perfect food. In fact, you can survive quite well on nothing more than an omelet and a glass of lemonade! Pasture raised eggs are special. Happy, free ranging chickens spend sunny days outdoors eating green grass, taking dust baths and foraging for their favorite things to nibble. They eat premium organic food and drink mineral rich well water. And they produce the world’s best eggs.
Hens that eat a diet rich in short chain omega fatty acids, like flax seed, produce an egg full of long chain omega fatty acids - the same essential omega fatty acids found in salmon or fish oil pills, which are vital to human health. We all know the world’s fisheries are in danger. Pasture raised eggs are an ecologically responsible alternative for you to get those very same nutrients, and the taste is incomparable to factory chicken eggs.
Crack a pasture raised egg. First thing you’ll notice is the strong shell – a sign that the hens are fed a calcium rich diet. Then the color of the yolk will stand out. A vivid orange hued yellow means the hens have been eating lots of natural grass containing essential vitamins. Next you’ll notice the bouncy whites are firm and any cook’s preference for omelets, cakes and meringues.
Arranged randomly in blue, greenish blue, white and light to dark brown, pasture raised chicken eggs make eating a special occasion. Kids love ‘em, too!
