At Yolked Up, we’re passionate about more than just providing fresh, delicious eggs. Our mission is rooted in ethical farming practices that prioritise animal welfare, environmental stewardship, and the health of our community. By offering pasture-raised eggs, we bring you eggs that are nutritious, flavourful, and ethically produced.
What is Ethical Egg Farming?
Ethical egg farming goes beyond simple production. It’s about creating a sustainable, humane environment where hens can thrive naturally. Our pasture-raised system means that our hens roam freely outdoors, enjoying a diet that includes grass, insects, and seeds, as nature intended. With access to sunlight, fresh air, and plenty of space, our hens live happier, healthier lives, free from the stress of confined cages or overcrowded conditions.
Why Pasture-Raised Eggs?
1. Higher Nutritional Value - Studies show that pasture-raised eggs are more nutritious than conventional eggs. Eggs from pasture-raised hens have been found to contain higher levels of Omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamins A and E, and beta-carotene. These nutrients contribute to the vibrant orange yolk and enhanced flavour, making pasture-raised eggs a superior choice.
2. A Richer, More Authentic Flavour - With a diet of fresh grasses, insects, and naturally available nutrients, pasture-raised hens produce eggs that are truly farm-fresh. The result is an egg with a firm white and a creamy, flavourful yolk that transforms any dish, whether it’s a simple scrambled egg or a more complex recipe.
3. Humane Treatment of Hens - At Yolked Up, we believe that respecting our hens is fundamental to ethical farming. Our pasture-raised approach ensures hens are not confined or crowded. They’re free to roam and engage in natural behaviours like scratching, dust-bathing, and foraging, which keep them physically and mentally healthy. We provide a clean, spacious environment for our hens to return to at night, ensuring they feel safe and secure.
4. Environmentally Friendly Practices - Pasture-raising isn’t just better for hens; it’s better for the environment. By allowing hens to graze on open fields, we’re able to reduce our reliance on grain feed, minimise waste, and promote soil health. Our hens help fertilise the land naturally, which supports a healthier ecosystem and reduces the need for synthetic fertilisers.
