FRESH EGGS

9/30/20251 min read

When it comes to eggs, it’s easy to think they’re all the same. But if you’ve ever cracked open a truly farm-fresh egg, you’ll know there’s a clear difference — in colour, taste, and quality.

At Farm To Fridge, we deliver eggs laid just a short journey from your doorstep. No long-haul lorries, no storage depots, no second guessing when they were laid. Just honest produce from hens that are well cared for by local farmers.

1.Let’s Talk Yolks

One of the first things people notice is the yolk.

Supermarket eggs often have pale yellow yolks — sometimes watery, sometimes barely holding shape.

Farm fresh eggs? Rich, golden-orange yolks that sit proudly in the pan. That colour comes from a better diet and happier birds.

2.Fresher Than Anything on the Shelf

Supermarket eggs can be days — even weeks — old by the time they hit the shelves.

Ours come from nearby farms and go straight into your delivery, often within a day or two of being laid. Fresher eggs mean better structure, better cooking, and better taste.

3.Hens That Matter

We work only with trusted local farmers who raise their hens with care and proper space to roam.

Better conditions mean healthier hens — and better eggs.

You won’t find these birds packed into huge sheds or stacked up in crates.

4.Support Local, Not Supermarket Profits

When you buy from Farm To Fridge, you’re keeping your money in Yorkshire. You’re supporting farms, families, and local jobs — not shareholder profits or big retail chains.

So, What’s the Verdict?

Once you’ve tasted farm-fresh eggs, there’s no going back.

And with our doorstep deliveries, there’s no need to.

No rain, no queues, no compromises — just fresh eggs, local milk, juice and more, brought to your door each week.
