The free-range eggs speak for themselves. Crack one open for breakfast and you’ll instantly see the difference; a dark yellow yolk full of nutrients, high seated whites while cooking, and a rich taste you’ll love from the first bite. They are $4.50 for a dozen for extra-large brown eggs.

We rotate our mobile coop every two days to keep them on fresh pasture where they enjoy eating grass and bugs (30% of their diet). The free-range pasture is enclosed with an electric netting to keep predators out and the birds nearby for egg collection. The concentration of laying hens is a perfect balance of open space for the birds, and adequate manure for the pasture.

Our free range eggs are laid, gathered, washed and packed daily. What you might find at the farmers market or local retail markets are as fresh of eggs as you’ll find in the area. The chickens have ample space to run around and scratch, as well as plenty of laying boxes where they feel safe and comfortable. They also roost within the mobile coop, above the laying boxes, for extra safety at night.

Our eggs can be purchased at our farm at the Old Seneca Farmers Market on Saturdays, the Potomac Village Farmers Market on Thursdays, or any day at Poolesville Organic Market and Travilah Oak Market.
