Twisted Tree Farm

I love everything about farm fresh eggs, from the super hard shell to the bright yellow yolk, farm fresh eggs just make a breakfast. Twisted Tree Farm is one of several vendors at the Bentonville Farmers Market that sell beautiful, brown, farm fresh eggs.


Lana, at Twisted Tree Farms, has one of my favorite breeds, the barred rock. The barred rock hens are the black and white speckled hens. These girls lay delightful brown eggs. This type of cage allows the chickens to be on the grass and forage while still being protected from predators. They have a huge watering tank and also shade from the sun. 

Twisted Tree Farm also sells USDA frozen farm fresh chicken. The layer hens are not the same as the broilers. As you can see Lana's trusty Australian Shepherd River, takes his guard dog job seriously. Here he is making sure the chicks are all accounted for.  



Twisted Tree farm's not only sells eggs and poultry, but they also grow tomatoes, corn, and squash. Lana informed me that she will be selling several varieties' of squash, so make sure you stop by her booth at market. 


While you are waiting on April 28th to arrive for the Bentonville Farmers Market to open, check out Twisted Tree Farms online. Don't forget to pick up a colorful fun hair wrap at her booth!
