Our chicken guy put his sign back out, and I’m excited to be ditching the store eggs and getting the good stuff.
Where the farmer places them in a bag for you, not in a carton.
Where they were laid the day you take them home.
Where you have to wash them because of the little feathers stuck on.
When you crack the shells and it’s like liquid gold.
Store eggs are good, but oh man. If you ever find a local farmer, it’s totally worth the long and dusty drive down a gravel road.
It’s definitely a treat. 🙂

We get fresh farm eggs but they are not free range. I never see them out of the barn. Yours look deeper in color than ours.

This post reminds me of my great-grandfather and going over to his house to get fresh brown eggs! Yum...

Oh, I love farm eggs! I almost bought some at a garage sale (benefits of living in Kansas City) but I had just bought 2 dozen at the store!!! I was sad! I'm keeping an eye out for local eggs now. 🙂

We love farm fresh eggs. I know what you mean -- they even taste different like you said. So much better. 🙂
