the happy egg co. Free Range Eggs Flock to Whole Foods Market(R) Stores in Northern California

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - Mar 7, 2013) -  the happy egg co. is expanding distribution of its Free Range eggs to include 38 Whole Foods Market stores in Northern California.

As more grocery shoppers search for products from animals raised with the best standards, the happy egg co. is meeting that need by providing high quality Free Range eggs from happy hens to Northern Californians. 

Setting the gold standard for happy hens, the happy egg co. provides its hens, or "Girls," with daily access to four acres of pasture to roam, plenty of clean water and nutritional feed, and extra care from expert family farmers. With animal welfare at its core, the happy egg co. is recognized by Certified Humane, a third-party animal welfare certification program that covers everything from a hen's living conditions to their feed, and the expertise of their caregivers.

Packaged in a distinctive sunshine-yellow carton, Free Range eggs from the happy egg co. add a ray of sunshine to the egg case. Big pillars inside of the carton lovingly cradle and protect the eggs, the same way a mother hen protects her chicks.
