Surrounding our small college town, in spite of Clemson being home to the land-grant institution in our state, we don't have many small farms anymore.
But hopefully, increased demand will encourage increased production.
These were local eggs that I purchased through a fledgling organization supporting local farmers (CAFE-Clemson Area Food Exchange). I wish I had the time to keep chickens myself, but I'm glad to support folks that can. These are actually a lovely variety of colors which doesn't show up in this (quickly taken, non-flash) photo!
