Navigating Egg Labels with Your Farmer

Navigating Egg Labels with Your Farmer

Food labels can often be confusing or even misleading. Let’s break them down together.

When you see the label “free range”, what do you picture?

Chickens frolicking through green pasture all day long?! At least that’s what the picture on some egg cartons shows, but that may not be the reality.

There are so many options at the store: Free-range, Certified Humane, Cage-free, Omega-3 Enriched, Organic, Vegetarian Fed, etc.

It’s easy to get overwhelmed and just choose the first carton you find without a broken egg or the one with the prettiest picture.
