In the spring, summer and fall our heritage breed hens are in their "egg mobile" or wandering our farm yard! During the winter they have access to their coop but spend much of their time exploring the farm yard. The love eating grass, exploring for bugs (which they love to eat) and making dust baths where every they can!
During the cold winter weather they spend more of their time nestled in their winter coop but they also go outside when the weather is nice. They don't mind snow, but they tend to go inside when it is raining or windy.
When these hens are grazing grass they produce eggs with beautiful dark orange yolks rich in beta-carotene, omega 3 FAs and vitamin E. In the winter we supplement their diet with grass/alfalfa hay which they love and it adds to the nutritional value of their eggs!
We have limited numbers of eggs available for farm gate sales. These eggs are not graded and therefore cannot be sold for re-sale, they can only be sold directly from the farm to the consumer. If you are interested in eggs, let us know!
