If you love a good egg, these are something special! Our extra extra large (XXL) free-range eggs are perfect for everything from a hearty weekend breakfast to baking your favourite cakes, preparing homemade meals or adding a protein boost to your lunch.
Why choose free-range eggs?
We believe good food starts with knowing where it comes from. That’s why we’re proud to offer locally sourced free-range eggs from Leicestershire. Free-range hens have access to the outdoors, where they can roam, scratch and exhibit more of their natural behaviours compared with hens kept in indoor-only systems.
Choosing free-range eggs is a great way to support farming systems that give hens outdoor access, while also enjoying a versatile and nutritious ingredient for your kitchen.
