Free-range eggs are sold under the Good News label to help defray operating costs.

PLACE A REGULAR ORDER AND SUPPORT THE PROJECT

A couple of points that may influence your decision:

FRESHNESS: Commercially produced eggs (even free-range) can be up to 3 weeks old by the time they reach the shops. Good News eggs are only days old.

HAPPY, CONTENTED HENS: Our flock is free to roam in and out of their barn at our Goyt Valley farm. They are fed on good, wholesome poultry feed and fresh water.
