  • Curious where our hens retire in the evenings after a long day grazing and exploring the pasture? Around sunset, they head back into the barn where they sleep every night. This keeps them cozy and most importantly, safe from predators. They typically like to lay their eggs in the morning in their protected nesting boxes in the barn, where they can enjoy their privacy. About 3 hours after sunrise, the barn doors open and the girls are free to roam and forage in the pastures year-round. Have another question about the girls' lifestyle?

  • Vital Farms is proud to have been B Corp Certified for the past 10 years, beginning in 2015 and we are dedicated to using our business as a force for good. But what does that mean, exactly? As a B Corp Certified company, we undergo an evaluation every three years, covering the following impact areas: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers. We continue to be certified because we are committed to raising the standards of the food industry with the core belief that good eggs don't come from taking shortcuts. For us, that means, first and foremost, our girls deserve and get the very best: free access to roam on pasture outside all day, every day, and live the life they deserve. In fact, each girl gets at least 108 square feet all to herself to roam free. We partner with farmers who care for their girls and are passionate about animal welfare. In turn, they're compensated fairly and given hands-on, in-person support from our Farm Support team. We also strive to be a consistent and reliable partner to our suppliers, communities, the environment, and even you, our consumers! You can learn more about how we're raising the standards and using our business as a force for good here: https://lnkd.in/ezq3QWWP.

    The price of eggs has become a hot topic of conversation in grocery store aisles across the country. But while prices continue to skyrocket, Vital Farms CEO Russell Diez-Canseco is playing the long game. Russell doesn't see the value in chasing price wars — he instead places his focus on long-term relationships with smaller family farms and adjusting pay on input costs to build trust and stability with his partners. By thinking long-term and not reacting to market spikes, Vital Farms ensures that they're not just selling eggs — but strengthening the supply chain. #RapidResponse #VitalFarms #AvianFlu #Sustainability #FoodIndustry #EthicalBusiness
