 | There is nothing like an egg coming from a free range chicken raised on pasture. You can see it already when you braek the egg. The eggs yolks are typically dark yellow, almost orange. Nothing like those pale yellow nothing tasting eggs you buy at the store. The main reason our eggs tast so much better is their diet. Since their diet is so much richer and varied than the diet of a caged chicken, the taste will also be more varied and richer. In fact, you will notice that eggs from one of our member farms will taste different from eggs from another member farms |

Farms carrying Free Range Natural Eggs
Belle Meade Farm specializes in pastured livestock raised without hormones or antibiotics, including cows, pigs, chickens, laying hens, and turkeys, as well as organic vegetables. The farm also features horses, dogs, cats, and an abundance of wildlife. Here at Belle Meade, all of our animal products are free-range and the beef is grass-fed. We practice management intensive rotational grazing in which our herd of cattle rotate through our pastures on a daily basis.
Rappahannock Farms was created in 2008 when two farming friends sat down to discuss how they could expand their lamb production to meet growing market demand and at the same time help bolster local family farms. The result of that discussion is Rappahannock Farms, LLC - dedicated to bringing you the best quality foods straight from our farms to your home.
Belle Ridge Farm offers the best natural pork sausage, free range eggs and from time to time rose veal and chevon (goats). Their spotted Gloucester pigs, chickens and calves all roam around freely in pasture and woodlands. The Belle Ridge Farm has its roots going back to the early 1700s when Kathy's Grove ancestors settled in Woodville, one of Rappahannock's most picturesque and best preserved small villages.
