SMALL, SUSTAINABLE, AND SUPER AMBITIOUS.
To put it bluntly, our barns and egg processing facilities are highly uncommon, especially for the size. Our commitment to putting our ladies first is matched by our efforts do right by the environment. The result is a surprisingly small carbon footprint and a workplace that is second-to-none for our team.
