Even the better organic/cage-free/pasture-raised eggs at supermarkets pale (figuratively and literally) in comparison to super-fresh eggs from a well-run farm. I have never seen eggs at the Copley Market, I usually arrive late to the Davis Sq. market so they may have them and run out, and Union Sq. doesn't start until this weekend. Thanks in advance.

Mon Jun 04 12:23:35 -0700 2007 2628315 14389 dchow 2 2628370 We have bought those eggs often - I believe the farm is called Johnson's. The woman with the cheeses, right at the front, sells them. If this is important to you, you should know that Johnson's is apparently a small local farm, but their hens are caged. When we can, we buy eggs from Chip-In Farms in Bedford, sold at Russo's in Watertown. They've gotten popular, so sometimes they're sold out.

They have hens on the premises, and the sign often said that they were laid that morning. When you break one next to a supermarket egg, there's no comparison. Thick whites, brilliantly colored yoke. And, you can get them year-round and they're reasonably priced, unlike some of their other stuff.

Tue Jun 05 17:31:29 -0700 2007 2628356 47694 litchick 3 2633460 and when those hens lay too many eggs, the price drops to almost nothing! Those are good days indeed.

Was there last Saturday- but had stopped at Trader Joe's on the way- the TJ eggs were only 99 cents. Will pass up the TJ eggs and try them from Wilsons this week.

I seem to remember a stand selling "Fresh-Squeezed Eggs" at the Lexington Farmers' Market last summer but I didn't try any. Mon Jun 04 13:22:25 -0700 2007 2628315 13756 GretchenS 2 2632651 Maybe Butterbrook Farm? They were at the Belmont market last summer with such a sign. I didn't try any either. Tue Jun 05 15:02:22 -0700 2007 2628606 48612 nonaggie 1 2628973 In year's past, the Arlington farmer's market had a vendor who carried them. I imagine they will continue this year when the market reappears. Mon Jun 04 14:35:07 -0700 2007 2628315 11146 EllenMM 1 2633549 I'm writing a profile this week on Lee Piper, the manager of the Copley and City Hall farmers markets. He mentioned that with the Copley expansion ( they have added a second row of vendors on the Bolyston Street side of the square) there will be a vendor selling eggs in the weeks ahead. Here is a link to a list of farms that intend to supply eggs at some time this year. http://www.massfarmersmarkets.org/productfarms.aspx?productid=456&productname=eggs Tue Jun 05 20:14:30 -0700 2007 2628315 21331 BostonZest
