SAN FRANCISCO, CA — This Fourth of July, the happy egg co. is celebrating freedom by expanding distribution of its Free Range eggs to include Bristol Farms stores and Jensens Foods locations in Southern California. The new partnership now makes Free Range eggs conveniently available and affordably priced at a total of more than 400 area grocery stores.
Free Range eggs from the happy egg co. were first made available in Southern California in October 2012. The addition of the new grocery retailers points to a growing demand from Southern Californians for food from animals that are cared for using the best standards. the happy egg co. is meeting that need by providing high quality Free Range eggs from happy hens. In fact, the company's strict standards are already going above and beyond those set by California's Prop. 2.
With animal welfare at its core, the happy egg co. is setting the gold standard for hen living conditions. the happy egg co. provides its hens, or "Girls," with daily access to four acres of pasture to roam, plenty of clean water and nutritional feed, and extra care from expert family farmers. This commitment has lead the happy egg co. to be recognized as Certified Humane Raised and Handled® by Certified Humane®, a third-party animal welfare certification program that covers everything from hens' living conditions to their feed, and the expertise of their caregivers.
"Southern Californians have become 'birds of a feather' with the happy egg co., taking a liking to our philosophy about Free Range eggs and animal welfare," said Rob Newell, chief marketing officer for the happy egg co. "Letting the freedom of our Girls ring has always been our no. 1 priority and with the addition of Bristol Farms, we are able to offer Southern Californians better access to the Free Range eggs they want."
Packaged in a distinctive sunshine-yellow carton, Free Range eggs from the happy egg co. add a ray of sunshine to the egg case. Big pillars inside of the carton lovingly cradle and protect the eggs, the same way a mother hen protects her chicks.
