Free Range Eggs
Since 2007, we have kept a flock of free-range hens to provide fresh eggs. The hens are allowed access to the goat pastures and enjoy a full buffet of grasses, weeds, seed heads and insects. We also supplement them with layer feed to ensure adequate nutrition for egg production.

Our hens have a new home!  In 2017 we upgraded their house to a permanent 10x16 foot shed.  Our livestock guardian dog enjoyed the hens a bit too much, so they are now kept in a permanent pasture, safe from the dog.  Inside, they have a wall of roosts, giving them plenty of space to rest and sleep, and a 15 hole nest box.  There are plenty of windows, a screen door and skylights.  And, they have an automatic chicken door that lets them out at dawn and closes at dusk.  Now they do not need to rely on us to close the door at night to keep the predators out!

 Our colorful flock consists of a variety of breeds suited for free-ranging and winter egg production. Currently, we alternate between Red Stars, Black Stars and Barred Rocks that lay brown eggs. We also have "Easter Egg Hens" (Araucana/Americana breed) that lay blue-green eggs!

You can purchase our Free-Range eggs directly from the farm for $3.50 per dozen
