Produce:
This winter is difficult for fresh veggies, but you may still find tomatoes, lettuce, and green peppers this week. Just be a little patient. Remember that Spurgeon Farms have preserved their produce through canning in their certified kitchen. Also, almost like having Mom living next door, Dodie Spurgeon is baking their own sweet potatoes and more into luscious pies! Dodie’s pies are made to order just for you, and, after cooling, are promptly dropped off with your name on them.
Price break: Nature’s Beef/Bar T Ranch In appreciation of your business has lowered the prices for you!

For those of you who don't care for blue-shelled eggs (for whatever reason) we offer to sort the brown ones out. These are the same quality as the blue shelled eggs. The hens are fed grain free of antibiotics or horomones.

Eggs - Dozen - Mixed Brown, Tan, Rose, Blue or Green (Putney Farm)Grower: Upstate Locally Grown Market
Price: $4.25 ( one dozen mixed colors )Available (Estimated): 19
Nutritional InfoA quote from Berkley's study on eggs: "Words to the wise: Eggs are good food. Most people can eat one or two a day. Just don’t mess them up by preparing them with fatty, salty ingredients or serving them with unhealthy side dishes."
Medium-to-large eggs, brown,blue-green, or tan in color. Gathered fresh this week! These eggs are from free ranged chickens, happily grazing on living food, which makes a noticable difference in the color of yolk ( more golden), the taste (richer), the texture (Firmer), and your health (healthier)! No horomones, pesticides, or cages are used on our farm. The hens have plenty of acerage to freely live a hearty life!
Happy hens seem to lay more eggs and maybe they even taste better for that reason, too!

Eggs - 1/2 Dozen Rainbow Eggs -(Putney Farm)Grower: Upstate Locally Grown Market
Price: $2.50 ( 1/2 dozen )Available (Estimated): 11
Specially selected, 6 Natural colors of the Americauna chicken egg shells; the inside is the same as all free-range eggs: golden yellow. Beautiful pastel colored eggs in a round see-through container; pink, blue-green, dark brown, or olive. These beautiful eggs, when boiled, make a lovely display.
About our Auracauna Chicken: Very docile, these multi-colored and rare hens are free to live a great life of picking their foods and activities, with plenty of food, water, fresh air, sunshine, and shade. They love to dust-bathe for their health. Stretching out in a sunny spot and warming themselves for a while, even on summer mornings, is a favorite activity. But, once the sun is high, the whole flock pretty much heads for the shady spots to snooze or to scratch up a snack from under the leaves.

Eggs - 30 in Cardboard Packaging Grower: Upstate Locally Grown Market
Price: $10.10 ( 30 eggs )Available (Estimated): 14
Volume discount. So fresh, at the time you order, the hens may still be working on them.. 30 random mixed shell color eggs in recycled/recyclable cardboard flat with protective sleeve. *order rebate if you have one to refill or order carton if you need one.
TIP
Hard boiling:
Any egg can be hard boiled, but the freshest eggs will probably not peel very well. The reason is that the egg membrane has not yet been infused with air. If you have fresh eggs and want to hard boil them, let them age a week or so first. This “problem” is not too common for store bought eggs.

Eggs - Dozen - Jumbo and Extra Large Grower: Upstate Locally Grown Market
Price: $4.75 ( A DOZEN )Available (Estimated): 76
Nutritional InfoThese are big eggs from regular healthy brown egg layers. Certain hens just lay bigger eggs. Recipe "Chocolate Mint Banana Bread Recipe.":http://www.mountainvalleygrowers.com/recipechocolatemintbananabread.htm using extra large eggs.
The hens lay the eggs in nest boxes in the barn during the day, and then go back out to pick, peck, cluck, and socialize. At night, the whole flock roosts in a huge airy barn, protected from night-time dangers. We try to keep their lives as natural as possible, and have actual tree limbs for some of the roosts. A deep layer of leaves line the roosting area, and the hen's nest boxes.
