The innovative East Yorkshire egg marketing co-operative EggSell lent its support to a North Yorkshire charity fundraiser that raised over £4000 during Farmhouse Breakfast Week.
EggSell Producers Ltd delivered 30 dozen of its best free range eggs to Patricia Knox at Mill Close Farm near Bedale for a 2 day fundraising event that saw 140 people tuck into a hearty farmhouse breakfast in aid of Yorkshire Cancer Research.
Caroline Elliott from Bewholme is one of the founders of EggSell Producers Ltd and is delighted with the outcome; "We have all been touched by cancer in some way and it's great to be able to reward an initiative for cancer treatment in our region and support Yorkshire's farming community at the same time."
EggSell Producers Ltd is a new and enthusiastic co-operative of egg producers that aims to build a new relationship between the farmer and the retailer whilst reducing food miles and ensuring a good return for everyone and providing the public with wholesome and tasty eggs from chickens that are free to roam.
EggSell welcomes enquiries from producers who already keep hens or from farmers who may be thinking about diversification (a free advice service is all part of the co-operative's commitment to its members).
