They do not have yogurt or cheese. They have milk and eggs. The eggs are $4 a dozen. I can get good free range fresh farm eggs from at least 3 other places around the area for $1.50 to $2 a dozen as long as I provide the egg cartons. I wasn't impressed and will go elsewhere.

What other places are you talking about. We just moved into the area and are looking for farm fresh eggs at a good price.

That's fine if you just want to save a quick buck by exploiting people who can't do math. But if you want to have a steady, local supply of quality, free-range eggs, you can't rely on having your egg purchases subsidized by hobbyists who will sell to you at a loss. That's not sustainable (or ethical). It costs more than a buck-fifty just to FEED hens enough to lay a dozen eggs if you're buying feed in quantities any smaller than truckloads. Once you figure in the cost of birds, equipment, facilities, marketing, etc., two dollars is under cost. Yeah, you can find people foolish enough to sell them for that little, but they won't be in business long and you'll have to find some other fool to prey on.
