Get Your Fresh Eggs Now

With Spring almost here, and the days getting longer, our laying hens are ramping up egg production on a daily basis.  We now have a much better supply of fresh, brown eggs at the Indianapolis Winter Farmer’s Market each Saturday from 9:00-12:30.  And of course, we only feed our chickens locally raised, transitional organic grains.  That means no genetically modified grains, no herbicides, pesticides, insecticides or the other yucky stuff that most chickens get fed.  You are what you eat, so demand only the best for your family!

Come see us at the Indy Winter Farmer’s Market now through April 30th.
