Pasture-Raised Organic Eggs
Vital Farms is the gold standard for accessible, high-quality eggs, offering true pasture-raised standards (108 sq ft per hen) and USDA Organic certification. Their unique 'Trace My Egg' feature allows consumers to see the actual farm where their specific carton was produced.
Ingredients & Purity
Hens are raised on pesticide-free pastures with a supplemental organic, non-GMO feed. The resulting eggs have deep orange yolks indicating high carotenoid content.
Scientific Evidence
Certified Humane Pasture Raised and USDA Organic. Third-party studies show pasture-raised eggs contain up to 2x more Vitamin E and 2.5x more Omega-3 fatty acids than conventional eggs.
Brand Transparency
Industry-leading transparency; every carton features a farm name that can be entered on their website to view a 360-degree video of the specific farm and its conditions.
Value Assessment
While premium priced, it is widely available in major retailers, often making it the most cost-effective way to guarantee true pasture-raised standards without a local farm share.
Why Not Alternatives?
Unlike 'Cage-Free' or 'Free-Range' competitors (like standard Pete & Gerry's), Vital Farms guarantees 108 square feet of outdoor space per bird, resulting in significantly higher Vitamin D and Omega-3 content compared to indoor-confined hens.
