Enjoy a dozen rainbow eggs from Liveable Acres or brown eggs from Sweetlove Farm or Piccalilli Farm.
Sweetlove Farm rotates their hens around the pasture in movable open-air hoop houses in Jefferson County.
Piccalilli Farm pasture raises their birds west of us in Geary County.
By raising laying hens in pasture with constant access to green grass, weeds, seeds, and bugs, fresh air and sunshine, the hens are healthy and produce their best possible eggs. Rich in protein, balanced in fats, high in vitamins and beta carotene, their eggs are as good for you as they are good-tasting.
Livable Acres raises a flock of heritage breed chickens at their organic permaculture farm in Berryton, KS. Raising a variety of slow growing and less common breeds of hens provides a fun variety of rainbow eggs. Their flock’s diet is free range and breeds include French Maran, Welsummer, Sussex, Rhode Island Red, Americana, and more!
