Sheep Pasture Eggs
Eggs are collected regularly at Sheep Pasture, which is what gives them their great farm-fresh taste! The egg supply is currently limited because of the recent hot weather and the young age of many of our birds, so eggs may not be available for sale every day. If you want to see if eggs are available, you can call the office at 508-238-6049. Due to the high number of requests, we are generally not able to save eggs in advance. Thank you for supporting Sheep Pasture! |
