Welcome to our backyard oasis in Southeast Portland, where we're dedicated to providing ethically sourced eggs to our community. At our small-scale egg-topia, we prioritize the well-being of our birds and the sustainability of our practices. Join us on a journey through the heart of humane egg production.
In a world where factory farming dominates, we've chosen a different path. Our approach centers on the humane treatment of birds, ensuring they live out their lives in comfort and dignity. Rather than raising birds from chicks, we open our doors to those in need of rescue or a new home. By offering sanctuary to these birds, we're able to provide eggs with a side of compassion.
Our feathered friends enjoy a spacious foraging area where they can peck and scratch to their heart's content. They feast on a diet rich in greens, worms, and grubs, supplemented with nutritionally balanced poultry feed. This diverse diet not only keeps our birds healthy and happy but also enhances the flavor and nutritional value of their eggs.
While other producers may strive for year-round egg availability, we prioritize the natural rhythms of our birds. From February to October, you'll find our eggs at their peak, reflecting the seasonal cycles of egg production. By discouraging out-of-season laying, we respect the innate needs of our birds and promote their overall well-being.
We're proud to offer convenient delivery options for our neighbors in close proximity, making it easier than ever to enjoy our sustainably sourced eggs. As avian flu continues to spread in factory egg farming operations across the country, the importance of supporting local producers like us becomes increasingly clear. By choosing eggs from ethical sources, you're not just investing in quality food – you're standing up for the humane treatment of animals and the health of our communities.
Thank you for joining us on this journey through the world of sustainably sourced eggs. With every purchase, you're not just buying eggs – you're supporting a vision of agriculture that values compassion, sustainability, and community. Together, we can make a difference, one egg at a time.
