It’s a statement often made by egg farmers. They chose the profession and rural lifestyle of farming because they enjoy working with hens, and they take great pride in providing a nutritious food for their family, community and province. Canadian egg farmers work hard every day to give their hens the best possible care so Canadians have a constant supply of fresh, high-quality and locally produced eggs. They also enjoy contributing to their community and are always pleased to share with others why they take great pride in what they do. On the following pages, we would like to introduce you to 10 Canadian egg farmers. Who better to ask for great-tasting ways to eat eggs?
