A reader had suggested I
tell people where to find fresh farm eggs in Kitsap County. I
started searching around the Internet and came across a very cool
interactive
farm map created by the Kitsap County Extension of
the Washington State University
Well, that made it pretty easy for me to share info with you.
You can search for farms that grow or sell local food by product.
Here’s what they had to say about eggs and other dairy:
I organized it by region of the county:
Poulsbo/North Kitsap
- Greenwoodes Farm – Sells eggs and vegetables if you join their CSA program
- Harley Bob’s Eggs – Eggs are sold off the farm and delivered to restaurants and retail buyers. They also have a farm stand, but they ask people to make an appointment.
- JJJ Farm – They sell by special order and are closed to the public
- Kowalski Farm in Kingston – They sell by appointment
Bainbridge Island
- Butler Green Farms – They are an organic farm, and sell their products through a CSA, at farmers’ markets and at Town and Country
- Holly Lane Gardens – They sell food at a farm stand, by CSA, farmers markets and retail
- Island Grown Farm – They sell eggs from free-range hens. You can contact the farm to purchase.
- Suzanne’s Garden -They sell at farmers markets.
- The DAM Ranche – They sell eggs, but ask that you please call the farm first.
- White Goose & Gorse Farm – They ask you contact the farm to buy.
Silverdale/Central Kitsap
- Lost Creek Farm – Free-range, naturally fed chickens. You can contact the farm to buy eggs.
- Pheasant Field Farms – They sell through CSA, farmers markets and at the farm by appointment.
- Red Barn Farm at Central Valley – They sell on the farm, through a CSA and at farmers markets
- Taliesins Gate – They sell through retail.
Port Orchard/South Kitsap
- Arbor Meadows Farm – They ask for no visitors, but you can contact them through their web site
- Levi’s Layers – You can special order eggs from them
- Possum Run Farm – They sell eggs from their farm and Port Orchard Farmer’s Market.
In Bremerton, I didn’t see any farms to buy fresh eggs, but CJ’s market on Park Avenue apparently sells eggs from Pheasant Field Farms as well as other locally grown or made products.
And since we’re on the subject of eggs, I’ll be trying out some new tips I got on making the perfect (or at least a better) omelette. I’ll let you know how it turned out soon.
