Our eggs come from hens that run, peck, dig, scratch, have plenty of water, eat bugs and enjoy lots of sunshine! You will find that our eggs have more flavor, a higher yolk and a firmer white.
Pastured Eggs
We want to take this opportunity and thank everyone that has purchased eggs from us in the past. What started out as simply overflow sales has turned into a nice addition to the farm.
Demand is high for our honest free-range eggs and we know that you are healthier for eating them! Are you eating the eggs that are healthiest for you? If you're eating store bought eggs, chances are that you're not! Sure they're cheap and abundant but are they the best choice for you? We think not!!

The hens have decided that it’s spring and are laying in abundance. These are happy, free-range birds that produce an excellent tasting egg. Just drive by and you can see some of them frolicking from the roadway. Our eggs have a long shelf life in the fridge- easily 2-3 months. Spring and summer is the heavy production period. Apparently that is when God intended us to eat more eggs. Our eggs are priced at $2.00/dozen when picked up at the farm. Prices will be slightly higher at the Farmer’s Market.
Note:. Foxhollow Farm is now carrying our eggs in their farm store. They are located on US 42. Locally, our eggs can be found at the Supermarket in Campbellsburg... thanks Stephen!
Above you see our laying hens in fresh pasture. Below them is a picture of our eggs decorated for Easter. Aren't the colors beautiful?!
