Tomorrow is National Egg Day! πŸ₯š

Celebrate by stopping by a farmers market or roadside stand and purchasing local eggs from a farmer near you! North Carolina egg farmers also supply eggs to grocery stores, military, schools, restaurants, and hotels. In fact, if you purchase Braswell Family Farms or store brand eggs like Food Lion, you are purchasing farm fresh eggs produced by NC egg farmers too!
