Eggs for sale

[NoFlyBackFarm]

I have a lot of people who buy from us....

People would laugh and walk away around here too. I do $2.50. Sometimes $2 in late spring when there’s an overload. Most people round here do $2.50 to $3.00

I wish I could get that much. It is a big difference in different states in food. Our store eggs are less than $2 maybe 3.00 for “organic free range” label. Sometimes eggs at the store will be less than a dollar on sale. Store prices in different locations and states can be a factor is all

I'm in Los Angeles and sell mine for $5.00 a dozen. At the farmer's market they sell for $10 a dozen the last time I bought eggs from them. (which was years ago) In the stores they sell "free range"/"pasture raised"/cage free", etc. for about $4.00 to $7.00. The people that buy my eggs say they would pay more because they taste so much better.

Around here farmers markets do $4 tops but even the 2.50 I do is more than the store but I know I would rather get them local. Fresher taste better and healthier. That how my customers feel too. I’ve never seen eggs anywhere here eggs more than $4 that’s only farmers markets. But food prices in general are probably different between the two places. I had a coworker who could believe how much his groceries bill dropped when he moved here from NY. He was amazed and I think that dictates local sales to an extent

$2-3 dollars

Our store eggs are 49-99 cents a dozen, even organic brown free range is only $3 in stores here. So if you charge more than $3 here you lose out on a lot of business.

In my town several homes advertise $3 a doz and 2 for $5. I do the same. GC

Definitely varies based on location. I'm in a rural area and these days everyone has chickens. I don't sell my extra eggs, but I see them for sale all the time for around $3-3.50

I sell my eggs to other farmers that go to markets for $4 if they pick up, and $5 a dozen if I deliver. Then they sell them for $6!
My girls are free range, organic, and I have easter eggers, and a wide variety of colors and sizes in my cartons. I think that helps.

Do you sell eggs if so what do you sell a dozen for.

Aside from egg prices, make sure you know the rules around selling eggs in your area. Might be very easy/lax rules especially if selling from your home. And since you are 4-H you should already have the contacts you need at the local Ag extension office to ask the questions around selling eggs. My local Ag office was very helpful.

If I were to sell around here, it would be around $2.50/dz or less. Most likely I would just donate extra to the local food pantry if I actually had extra.

Ok thank you. Yes we have very easy rules and a couple of my friends sell eggs. The people in my county are very supportive of 4h so my extension agent said to try selling them for 3.50
