about
Our Farm
We began our journey in 2017, when the price of a dozen eggs was about $3.00. Originally, we only wanted eggs to feed our family. Suddenly and 100 chickens later, we acquired our 8-acre farm and began growing our egg business. Together with our 6 boys, we have built our farm, not only to provide a space for our kids to learn life and business skills but also to support children in the foster care system.
We enjoy the whole process as a family. From caring for baby chicks to ensuring our girls are happy, well-nourished, and healthy.
Healthy eggs come from happy hens!
