about bluestem eggs

happy, healthy hens

  • Research shows that pasture-raised eggs contain higher levels of omega-3s, vitamin D, and beta-carotene, making them not only delicious but deeply nourishing.

  • These eggs often have a better omega-3 to omega-6 ratio, especially when hens are also pasture-raised.

    Reduced omega-6 (which is pro-inflammatory in excess) due to lack of corn and soy.

  • Some people are sensitive to soy or corn proteins that may carry through to eggs via feed. Avoiding these feeds can reduce potential allergic reactions.

  • Genetically modified organisms are avoided entirely, which is important to those seeking clean, natural food sources or following a non-GMO lifestyle.

REGENERATIVE FARMING

  • Our chickens contribute to soil health by naturally fertilizing the land, reducing the need for synthetic inputs.

  • With rotational grazing, lower feed dependency, and reduced environmental impact, our approach prioritizes sustainability.

  • By foraging, they help manage pests and weeds, fostering a balanced farm ecosystem.

ETHICAL ANIMAL WELFARE

  • No cages, no confinement… just fresh air, space to roam, and a natural diet free from GMOs, corn and soy.

  • Our hens have better living conditions, more movement, and access to natural foraging.

  • At Bluestem Hollow, we believe that happy, healthy hens lay the best eggs. that’s why our chickens roam freely on lush pasture, foraging naturally in the sun and fresh air. This method isn’t just better for them, it’s better for the land, the environment, and the quality of the eggs they produce.
