What it means to be Organic
Organic eggs come from hens raised in a free range system with access to the outdoors. These hens are fed certified organic feed, and farmers follow the Canadian Organic Standards regulated by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
Organic means we feed our chickens feed made from organic grains, vitamins, and minerals, and contain no fillers, buffers, or animal byproducts. All products are non-GMO.
