The hens are happy and producing large light brown eggs!
The eggs are delicious eaten any way you prefer as an entree, in an omelet, or a mix-in any recipe you like!
The hens enjoy free range in a natural grass and vegetable environment. The hens diet is supplemented with high quality vegetable proteins and nutrients.
Please contact me at KatysGarden@gmail.com if you are interested in purchasing farm fresh eggs.
The hens' free range is listed on the pesticide sensitive crop locator to give commercial sprayers notice to keep their pesticides and other chemicals off the property.

The honeybees are busy insects. The scouts leave the beehives shortly after dawn to look for the best sources of nectar and pollen. The scouts return within the hour and do the honeybee waggle dance so the hives foragers know where to go. After the morning sun warms the hives, there are thousands of bees flying in and out of the hives. It is amazing that bees perform these takeoffs and landings without flying into one another!
