We offer pastured eggs from Farmer Brown and Mussett Holdings.
We're often asked, 'which ones are best?' and we find it impossible to answer because we think they're all as good as each other. The farms are all regeneratively-managed with no chemical inputs, the chickens are all ranging free on mixed pastures with stocking densities as low as three per hectare and are regularly rotated onto fresh paddocks. The handling and animal husbandry is all of the highest standard. Of course, each farm is unique and offers the birds a particular environment and range of plants on which to graze and there are certainly seasonal variations.
But, overall, we think they are all excellent growers and we're proud to be offering their produce.
