Orchard Eggs: Organic, Biodynamic, and 100% Delicious.

We are beyond EGGCITED to announce the launch of Orchard Organic Eggs on weekly.shop!

Located on Brambletye Farm in East Sussex, these eggs represent a commitment to ethical farming, environmental responsibility, and supporting local business — values that are at the heart of what we do.

Delivered to you in our 100% zero-waste, shock-proof reusable packaging, these eggs offer a taste experience that’s as good for the planet as it is for your plate.

What Makes Orchard Organic Eggs Special?

Orchard Organic Eggs are not your average eggs. These come from hens that roam freely in 60 acres of biodynamic orchard, living a natural and happy life in moveable houses. The hens are cared for in small flocks, with plenty of space to scratch, peck, and forage. They are reared on the farm from day one are fed a 100% organic grain based diet that is locally sourced.

This freedom results in healthier, happier chickens — and in turn, better quality eggs that are rich in flavor, color, and nutrients.

When you crack open an Orchard Organic Egg, you’ll immediately notice the vibrant yolk and robust texture, a reflection of the hens’ high-quality diet and stress-free environment. These eggs are produced without synthetic chemicals, GMOs, or artificial feed, making them a pure farm-to-table product.

The Benefits of Biodynamic Farming

Biodynamic farming takes organic farming to the next level. This holistic approach views the farm as a living ecosystem, where everything — the soil, plants, animals, and even the farmer — is interconnected. Both Orchard Eggs and Brambletye Farm (on which they are situated ) follow these principles to cultivate not only eggs but a thriving, resilient landscape.

Some key benefits of biodynamic farming include:

  • Healthier Soil: Biodynamic practices enrich the soil with natural composts and preparations, leading to better crop yields and more nutrient-dense food.
  • Higher Welfare Standards: Hens are treated with respect and allowed to express natural behaviors, which promotes animal health and longevity.
  • Closed-Loop Systems: Waste from the farm is recycled back into the system, reducing environmental impact.
  • Chemical-Free Farming: No pesticides or synthetic fertilizers are used, safeguarding ecosystems and water quality.

By choosing biodynamic products, you're supporting a farming system that regenerates the earth and produces healthier, more sustainable food.

Supporting Local Businesses and Sustainable Communities

We believe in the power of local sourcing, and Brambletye Farm is a shining example of a business that supports its community.

Orchard Eggs is run by the young Dutch couple Karen and Daniel Hoeberichts, who moved to England in 2008 with the dream to start up their own flock of laying hens while settling down as a family. Since then they have welcomed two lovely girls and thousands of chickens into their lives!

By partnering with local farmers like Karen and Daniel, we:

  • Reduce Carbon Footprints: Local sourcing cuts down on transportation emissions, keeping your food miles low.
  • Support Local Economies: Purchasing from nearby farms helps sustain rural communities and small businesses.
  • Ensure Freshness: Locally sourced eggs are fresher, tastier, and reach your table quicker than those shipped from afar.

When you buy Orchard Organic Eggs, you're not just making a delicious choice; you're investing in local resilience and a healthier future.

We were introduced to the team at Orchard by George Threlfall of Mellow Yellow Eggs, who has a remarkable story of his own - George started his eggcellent business (the puns are his, so many egg puns) during lockdown in 2020, aged just 13.
