Will you just look at those eggs? They make me giddy and happy inside! Do you want to know why? Because...

1.I am supporting an Oklahoma farmer.
2.They came from chickens that live in a huge grassy area and they get to eat all the grass & bugs that they want. Their owners even call them the "little ladies" and they supposedly rule the farm.
3. They are so pretty with all of their different colors, speckles, sizes, etc.

We have been members of the Oklahoma Food Coop now for about 6 months and I love it. We buy organic meat, cheese & yogurt, eggs, herbs and whole wheat bread/pizza crusts each month, along with whatever else sounds yummy. Sure, we pay a bit more but now we know all of the ingredients in a large portion of the food we eat and we know that the animals that we are eating are treated well (very important to me).
The Hoppers made a pact at the beginning of the year to be "more green" and healthy and this is just one of the improvements that we have made. Check it out for yourself!
