Rupert's Fancy Fowls - what makes these eggs so special?
We are really proud to stock beautiful Class A Free Range eggs from local artisan producer Rupert and his flock of Fancy Fowls.
Rupert's hen's eggs taste superb and are laid by happy chickens, living their best lives just 2 miles away from the Somerset Foodie warehouse in Rode. Rupert has a small mixed flock, hand-reared for him by specialist breeders with their foundations in heritage birds: White Leghorns, Columbian Blacktails, Rhode Rocks, Lohmann Browns and Speckledys. Rupert collects eggs twice a day by hand, seven days a week to guarantee 100% freshness.
If you've ever meet Rupert you will know that he is a really lovely guy, and always full of useful and insightful chat. Rupert is a passionate advocate of the local food movement. We love his beautiful eggs, his funky, colourful packaging and his grounded, positive philosophy on life.
Here are some Somerset Foodie recipes we've written and published to give you the perfect opportunity to try them at home...
