Eggs

Our flock is a paradigm of good health; we have never had to use antibiotics or chemicals. This is all a part of how we ensure the circularity and sustainability of our farm and land.

The flock itself is made of heirloom breeds of chickens including Ameraucana, Rhode Island Red, Australorp, Speckled Sussex, Welsummer, Spangled Russian Orloff, Cuckoo Marans, Wyandotte, Barnevelder, and Plymouth Rock poultry. By nurturing these special breeds, we are adding to the artisanal quality and diversity of our farm, and we are able to put together gorgeous combinations of various shades of green, blue, white, and all shades of brown eggs!


Our chickens, as well as the land that they range on, are USDA Organically Certified through NOFA-NY Certified Organic, LLC as well as Certified Naturally Grown and Biodynamic.

Beyond the natural diet of insects and vegetation they get while ranging, the grains they are fed are certified organic. This high-quality food insures that the eggs will also be of high quality.

The eggs produced by the hens of Midsummer Farm have extremely dense and yellow yolks. They are not only naturally high in Omega-3 fatty acids and a bounty of other nutrients, but they are also the epitomy of the goodness of fulfilled and happy hens. Enjoy!

MidsummerFarm Hens - Eggs from fulfilled and happy hens living in a naturally sustainable environment...

The hens that do such a wonderful job laying eggs at Midsummer Farm are treated as family members. They are respected as living, feeling beings and thus enjoy spending the entire day ranging in about 3 acres of pasture, woods, wild meadow, and riparian areas all of which are organically maintained. They are only cooped up at nighttime for their protection; the coop is maintained using a deep-bedding method where composting starts in the bedding itself. The chicken manure is treasured for the wonderful compost it makes and is used on the farm to grow our vegetables, herbs, and flowers.
