Farm Fresh Eggs vs. Store bought Eggs
Let’s talk chickens ! 🐓
We have absolutely loved having chickens on our homestead and all the benefits they bring.
We do not harvest our chickens BUT we do love their eggs !
Our chickens free range 24/7 and have access to our entire property. They eat organic feed and grains and sleep inside their coops at night. They also get lots of treats and some of our farm fresh veggies and herbs 🌿
I always recommend chickens for people who are looking to start a homestead or just want some backyard pets.
Now what are the benefits of eating Farm Fresh Eggs vs. Store Bought Eggs?
🐓 Farm fresh eggs have more vitamin A, vitamin E, beta-carotene, and omega-3 fatty acids than store-bought eggs. They also have less saturated fat and cholesterol.
🐓 Farm Eggs have much better flavor and very rich yolks
🐓 Unwashed FARM eggs can last up to 2 weeks un refrigerated, and Washed FARM eggs can last up to 3 MONTHS in the fridge !
Most store bought eggs do not give the chickens access to pastures , when you buy farm eggs you are buying from chickens that have access to all these things daily and come from a better source of life.
You are also supporting your local farmer !
Next time you see some Farm Fresh Eggs for sale give them a try ! 🐓🤍🥚

When it comes to eggs, knowing what you’re consuming is essential for good health. Farm fresh eggs, often produced by chickens that roam freely and eat organic feed, have been shown to contain higher levels of beneficial nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins A and E. This is in stark contrast to many store-bought options, which often come from caged hens fed a grain-based diet. Taste is another important factor; those who have tried farm fresh eggs frequently note their richer flavor and vibrant yolks, making them a delicious choice for breakfast or baking. Additionally, farm fresh eggs can be stored longer than washed counterparts, offering flexibility for home cooks. Supporting local farmers not only improves food quality but also strengthens community ties. So next time you're at the market, consider choosing farm fresh eggs – your taste buds and your health will thank you!
Eggs from the farm are sooo crazy different from store eggs!! They’re buttery and delicious 😍
