  Comments from a visitor on November 09, 2010: "We visited the Dairy Creek Farm and had a WONDERFUL experience. My husband enjoyed chatting with the very friendly farmer and his young sons while I picked bushels of gorgeous chemical-free tomatoes of all types. We also came away with a ton of winter squash, all for a twenty dollar bill. What a generous family and they allowed us to have our dog with us on a leash too. A bonus is that the farm is located in a beautiful area. We spent the rest of the afternoon hiking the Vernonia-Banks trail. Wish we'd found them sooner in the season! Thanks for your wonderful site and for connecting us with these great folks. Looking forward to next harvest season!!"

Eggs: Tips, Recipes and Information

Many PYO farms keep chickens and have farm-fresh eggs to sell. Certainly, these eggs are fresher and better in every way than those from a grocery store. Many of these farms sell the eggs year round, often via an honor box

• Types of eggs
• Egg buying guide: grades, sizes and more
• How long do eggs and egg products stay safe and fresh in the fridge
• Selling eggs from your backyard chickens
• Facts about eggs and chickens
• Glossary of meat, milk and eggs terms

Before you leave to go to the farm:

1. Always call or check their website or facebook page before you go to the farm - Egg supplies can vary, chickens lay fewer in cold weather.
2. Bring a container for the eggs.  Some farms have them some not, but if you save and reuse egg cartoons, the farmers will appreciate it. It helps cut their costs - and thus yours!
3. Bring cash - many operate honor boxes for eggs
   

When you get home

 To keep eggs safe, take eggs straight home and store them immediately in the refrigerator set at 35 to 40 F. Leave the eggs in their carton and place them in the back of the refrigerator, not in the door (which is the warmest part of the fridge).
