Pasture-raised eggs brand Consider Pastures is introducing a sustainable egg model that looks to regenerative farming practices to support products that are good for land and animals alike. The brand's focus on environmental stewardship and holistic farming practices continues its commitment to humane animal treatment and adds value to the eggs, which are Certified Humane Pasture-Raised.
Recognizing that the industrial agricultural system leads to nutrient runoff, soil erosion and harmful algal blooms in freshwater and coastal system, Consider Pastures is taking a stand to improve biodiversity and soil health. The company will be introducing bat houses to help with pest control, avoiding deep tilling and avoiding all use of pesticides and inorganic fertilizers.
The packaging for the product boasts a deep blue color that recalls the first egg carton invented in 1911 and references "the simpler, common sense values farmers once lived by."
