Humane Eggs

So, I am really trying to buy local and humanely raised animal products. Well, that is one goal of mine. It is a lot of work, not to mention expense. So, right now I am working on eggs, since there are still local farms around my neck of the woods that raise chickens and sell eggs. (I'd LOVE to have my own, but that is not in my immediate future. Possibly come summer. Maybe. Long story there.)

Anyway, so my search has begun to find a reliable source for farm fresh eggs. There is a farm withing 5 miles of my house that sells eggs at our local farmers market ... when they have extra. Apparently they have enough demand from current costumers to meet their hen's output. Especially now that the weather has turned.

So now I have the unique pleasure of scouring the countryside looking for eggs for sale, and then grilling the owners on their feeding and care of the hens. Yea, I look forward to that Inquisition!
