What’s so great about our eggs?
Terms Used in Marketing Eggs
- All Natural: This is really a very loosely applied term in the food industry and does little to describe what it is you are buying.
- Vegetarian Fed: Unbeknownst to most consumers, a vegetarian diet is very unnatural to chickens. Such a diet is only made possible by denying hens a natural free-range environment where they may encounter their usual diet which includes insects and worms.
- Organic: Certified organic includes standards relating to the feed and living conditions of the hens. While we agree on the principles of organic, the standards have been watered down in support to the major egg producing companies.
- Cage-Free: Hens are not kept in cages, but may still live in overly confined and stressed conditions.
-Free-Range: Hens are merely allowed access to the outdoors but still may not actually actually spend considerable time out of their confinement barns.
-Pastured: A system of rotational grazing in which hens spend much of their time foraging in pastures.
In the Pastured method hens are rotated on pastures and allowed to express their chicken nature by foraging for seeds and bugs, taking dust baths, and occasionally attempting flight (it doesn’t hurt to try every once in a while).
While we use organic methods on our pastures and feed locally produced grains, neither our pastures nor feed are certified organic. We are however working to find local organic feed producers and move in that direction.
Our hens are hormone and antibiotic free and enjoy a very pleasant chicken lifestyle. This all translates to a noticeable difference in the look, taste, texture, and nutrition of the egg.
