Although the chickens have slowed down for the winter, our ducks are going strong. Check out our duck eggs in the CSA store. They are similar size to a large chicken egg. They have a hard shell and a thicker membrane making it a little more difficult to crack. I think they are great for cooking too. They are really delicious and I didn’t really notice a difference in taste vs. a chicken egg. Available for a limited time in our store. We are looking forward to ramping up the season for our chickens and adding a new flock come spring time.
We are also patiently awaiting a huge variety of fruit trees that will be planted this year. A very sweet future is ahead. Hoping this winter bounty will fill your fridge and warm your hearts as you eat it.
