I, too, am amazed at the difference in regional egg prices. In our
Central CA lives, the high prices were about right.......here, it's 1.00
per dozen - no matter how they were raised! I am in an a rural
entrepreneurship coaching program where a group has a project to get
farmers to sell free range eggs for resale at 1.00 per........same cost
for private sales locally. This is another area where we will produce
eggs and chickens for family, but not worthwhile for sale.
As with tomatoes in our area, the majority of folk do not care about how
i raise my produce - just that it sure better not be any more expensive
that a nearby conventional grower puts out! As more outsiders move in
(very, very slowly), there is interest in different foods and ways of
producing. It will be decades for true appreciation of "different"
efforts in Appalachian Kentucky!
