Pastured Eggs

Our chickens are raised in the pasture on a rotational grazing program. Here they roam free to feed on fresh grass and insects. We move the chickens and portable layer house throughout our pastures.

Our chickens were raised here on our farm from the time they were two-day-old chicks. They are supplemented with only non-GMO feed, fresh greens and vegetables from our gardens.

Our chickens are not just “free range” or “cage free” or “fresh farm eggs” like many of the store bought egg cartons claim. Pasture raised chicken eggs are beyond those claims in richness, yolk color, and an unsurpassed quality for cooking and taste. Forrest Green Farm chickens are truly pasture raised, out in the open feeding on the grass and nature. This is where our eggs get their rich nutrients. Studies have shown that pasture raised chicken eggs are higher in vitamin E, beta-carotene, Omega 3’s, and lower in cholesterol than the standard USDA factory farm chicken eggs.
