Howdy everyone! Michael Jimenez here, the owner of JMZ Farms. I’m super excited to share with you all the amazing health benefits of our pasture-raised eggs. Here at JMZ Farms, I believe in doing things the right way, which means happy hens and healthy eggs!
An Interesting Fact About Our Egg-Laying Hens
Did you know that a healthy hen can lay about 300 to 325 eggs a year? That’s almost one egg every day! Our hens are real superstars when it comes to providing us with nutritious and delicious eggs. But it’s not just the number of eggs that’s impressive – it’s the quality of the eggs they lay.
What Makes Our Eggs Special?
You might be wondering, what’s the big deal about pasture-raised eggs? Well, let me break it down for you in a way that’s easy to understand. When hens are pasture-raised, they get to roam freely outside, scratch around in the dirt, and eat a natural diet of insects and plants. This makes them much healthier and happier than hens that are kept in cages or indoors all the time.
Health Benefits of Our Eggs
· More Nutrients: Our organic pasture-raised eggs have more vitamins and minerals compared to regular eggs. They’re packed with Vitamin A, Vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids, which are super important for your body.
· Better Taste: Because our hens are eating a natural diet and living in a stress-free environment, their eggs taste richer and fresher. You can really taste the difference!
· Lower Cholesterol: Studies have shown that pasture-raised eggs tend to have lower cholesterol levels, making them a healthier choice for your heart.
· Stronger Shells: Our eggs have thicker shells, which means they stay fresher longer and are less likely to crack.
Inspired by Joel Salatin
I’ve been inspired by the farming practices of Joel Salatin, a farmer who believes in sustainable agriculture. Just like Joel, we let our chickens be chickens! They get to live a life that’s as close to nature as possible, and in return, they give us the best eggs.
