Wondering why we’re so eggstremely passionate about eggs? Beyond the plate, we love where our eggs come from. We’ve partnered with egg suppliers large and small and can proudly say that all of the eggs sold in our dairy case and those used in our kitchens and bakeries are cage free – meaning the hens aren’t raised in cramped cages. Curious what those other labels on your carton mean? Check out this handy chart.

What a label says and what it means:

  • Cage Free - hens are not caged (we don’t sell any eggs from hens raised in cages)

  • Free Range - hens have access to the outdoors

  • Outdoor Based - hens live outdoors and have access to housing

  • Pasture Raised - hens have access to a pasture environment in a free-range or outdoor-based system

  • Organic - hens have access to the outdoors, are raised on organic feed, meet USDA Organic Standards

  • Omega-3 or DHA - hens are fed a diet supplemented with DHA and/or omega-3 essential fatty acids

  • Fertile - roosters are raised with the hens

So now that you can rest assured knowing where your eggs come from, it’s time to cook them! Start with our foolproof recipe for Boiled Eggs opens in a new tab, then double-stuff your plate with this spring-tastic recipe for Double Stuffed Deviled Eggs with Ham opens in a new tab.
