Can you describe how your hens are housed and cared for?
“Our hens are housed in an enriched system where they live in colonies. Each colony has a nesting box so the birds have privacy when laying eggs, along with scratch pads and perch rods for roosting. They also have access to feed and water 24 hours a day.”
What does it mean to you to have your kids grow up on an egg farm?
“Seeing my kids help out on the farm makes me feel both happy and proud. They’re growing up in a similar environment to the one I did, and they get to see firsthand what I do every day and be part of it with me. It’s meaningful to watch them learn the value of hard work, contribute as a family, understand where their food comes from, and develop a strong sense of responsibility.”
