Range Rejuvenation at the Farm: Why it matters for our hens and egg production.
At the farm, we’ve recently undertaken a period of range rejuvenation, a vital process in maintaining the health of both our land and our hens.
Range rejuvenation involves resting, repairing, and revitalising the outdoor pasture areas where our hens roam. Over time, continuous grazing can place pressure on the soil and vegetation, so allowing sections of the range to recover helps restore natural balance, improve ground cover, and encourage fresh, nutrient-rich plant growth.
This work is not just about looking after the land; it directly supports the wellbeing of our hens. A healthy, well-managed range provides a more stimulating and natural environment, encouraging behaviours such as foraging, dust bathing, and exploration. These conditions are important for hen welfare and contribute to calmer, healthier birds.
In turn, healthier hens lead to better and more consistent egg production. When birds have access to high-quality pasture and a well-maintained environment, it supports their overall condition, which is reflected in the quality of the eggs they produce.
Range rejuvenation is an ongoing commitment at the farm, reflecting our focus on sustainability, animal welfare, and responsible farming practices. By investing in the land, we are investing in our hens and ultimately in the quality of the eggs that reach our customers.
