Thinking of getting chickens this spring? Here’s the main reason to do it: homegrown eggs taste amazing.
Here’s a visual representation of the difference.
On the left, an egg my chicken Rosie laid. On the right, an egg from the grocery store.

We can’t have chickens in the city, municipal by-law against it 🙁 But we can get farm fresh eggs, maybe not delivered daily, but lots of farmers markets and local stores sell them. Where I grew up, our neighbours sold eggs so mom would send us over to get some. 🙂
Melissa A.: That sounds great. More places should have farm fresh eggs available to buy like that.
