I got this email from our farm  They sold out of these eggs in less than 24 hours.  What do you do with 20 dozen eggs???

Greetings Springdale Farm members and friends!

The Amish farmer (Norman Miller of Pardeeville) who supplies the organic eggs that some of you received last year recently started a new batch of chickens. When the chickens first start laying, their eggs are always on the smaller side.  Since the wholesaler who takes most of his eggs doesn't want the smaller eggs, Norman needs to find another outlet for them. He asked me if I might assist him in finding a home for these smaller eggs.  Since we don't want to bother the pick-up sites during their off-season, especially with freezing temperatures that damage eggs, we would either have to deliver the eggs to your home directly, or you could come to the farm to get them. We also want to move them in greater quantities than one or two dozen at a time.

So here's the offer: a box of eggs containing 20 dozen eggs would be delivered to your place for $30. (If you live far off the beaten track -- then we'd add another $5.)  If you want to come to the farm to get them, we'd ask $25. The eggs should last at least a month, if kept in a cool spot.  Norman's farm is certified organic.  In another year or two we will be building a chicken coop on our farm to replace the one that burned last winter, and in fact we'll be building it following the design of Norman's chicken coop, but in the meantime, we are happy to provide you with the eggs raised by him and his family.

If you would like to be included on this egg delivery, contact us soon. They will probably not last long.  Also available is red cabbage at $0.80 a pound and grass-fed ground beef at $3.50 a pound, which we'd be happy to deliver to you along with the eggs

Thank you, and stay warm!
