The Advantages of Pasture-Raised Eggs
Our Eggs vs. Store-Bought Eggs
| Our eggs | Store eggs | |
|---|---|---|
| The hens | Moved weekly to fresh grass in the Egg Mobile | Barn housing; “cage-free” means no cage, not outdoors |
| Their diet | Grass, insects and seeds they forage themselves, plus their feed ration | Formulated feed only |
| In the pan | Deep orange yolks, rich flavor | Pale yellow yolks |
| Age when you get them | Collected on the farm you are standing on | Often weeks old by the time it reaches the shelf |
Is pasture-raised the same as cage-free?
No. “Cage-free” only means the hens are not in a cage — they can still live their whole lives inside a barn. Our hens live outdoors in the Egg Mobile, which we move to fresh grass every week so they are always foraging somewhere new.
Egg Mobile: The Ultimate Foraging Experience
Our mobile shelter for our layers or what we like to call, Egg Mobile.
This simple shelter keep the predators and harsh weather out, while allowing the chickens to forage for bugs, grass, and weeds. They are moved regularly for a fresh “salad bar.”

Pasture Raised Eggs

Each egg is laid by hens that roam freely on vibrant pastures, feasting on a natural diet enriched with grass, seeds, and insects. This not only results in beautifully colored yolks but also provides superior nutrition, packed with healthy fats, proteins and vitamins. Perfect for breakfast, baking, or any culinary creation, our eggs deliver a taste that elevates your meals while supporting sustainable farming practices.
