What inspired your family to become egg farmers?
“We decided to become egg farmers because we were looking for an opportunity to farm as a family. We had a growing family ourselves and explored several different live stock opportunities. Egg farming seemed to be the one that felt just right for us as a family.”
What is the most rewarding aspect of being an egg farmer?
“One of the things we find truly amazing is that we’re able to provide Ontario eggs for Ontario families, often a lot more local than we think. The truck that picks up our eggs once a week also delivers to local grocery stores in the area, which reflects the pride we take in supplying eggs to families right here in Ontario.”
