True Free-Range Eggs

At Oak & Iron Farm, true free-range means unrestricted pasture access, not small fenced runs.

Our hens:

• Roam approximately 5 open acres daily

• Forage naturally for grasses, insects, seeds, and minerals

• Receive supplemental feed to maintain balanced nutrition

• Return to a protected coop at night for safety

• Lay eggs that are collected fresh each day

This natural diet and movement often produces eggs with:

• Richer yolk color

• Thicker shells

• Excellent texture for cooking and baking

Important Handling Information

These eggs are unwashed farm eggs. Commercial grocery eggs are washed, which removes the egg’s natural protective coating (called the bloom). Because our eggs retain this natural bloom, they stay fresh longer but require simple handling guidelines.

Storage

Keep eggs refrigerated. Recommended refrigerator temperature is 34–40°F

Refrigeration slows natural aging and maintains quality.

Shelf Life

When refrigerated:

• Best quality: within 4–6 weeks of purchase

• Often safe longer if kept refrigerated and shells remain intact

If unsure about freshness, perform a float test:

• Sinks and lays flat → very fresh

• Sinks but stands upright → still usable

• Floats → discard
