Offering limited quantities of fresh brown eggs collected and refrigerated at least daily from heritage breeds of hens (Rhode Island Reds and Light Brahmas) that forage from our pastures every day. We adhere to sustainable principles in the management of our pastures and chickens. Our hens are out and about free will during the daytime, and are only cooped at night for their safety. Besides free access to nature, the hens' diets are supplemented with natural grains (corn, oats, flax) and mineral balanced vegetarian layer crumbles feed mix. They have free choice access to oyster shells to maintain shell integrity. Hens tend to be seasonal layers and despite the heat lamps, we always have more eggs in the warmer months than during the cold of winter. Feel free to call anytime to check on availability. Conveniently located 1/2 mile south of Rt 33 in North Howell, NJ.

FRESH BROWN EGGS FROM HAPPY, TRULY FREE-RANGING, PASTURE FED HENS. The deep orange-yellow yolks reflect the quality of the diet of these hens. Compared to conventional factory farmed eggs, farm fresh eggs like these tend to be richer in Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids, lower in cholesterol and saturated fat, and have more Vitamins A, E, and Beta-Carotene. Taste the difference for yourself!! For 2008 we will have a surplus of fruits and vegetables that will be offered for sale.
