Looking for Egg Producers!!

You may remember we did a survey a couple of years ago to determine interest in community egg grading stations. Since then, we have published a comprehensive report on this subject.

Now, several farms have contacted  us and expressed interest in hosting egg grading stations.

PLEASE take this survey if you are interested in having your eggs graded, and are anywhere close to Orono, Ontario. It will help us find out whether there is a critical mass of egg producers close by and a grading station at this location would be feasible.

We will then plan to have a meeting of producers in the area who are interested.
