🥚 May’s NH Harvest of the Month: Eggs! 🐣 Eggs have been a staple in human diets since 1400 BC. Chickens, domesticated around 6,000 BC, typically lay an egg every 25 hours, with increased laying during warmer months due to longer daylight hours. Did you know? The color of an egg yolk reflects the hen’s diet. Darker yolks often indicate a diet rich in green plants, common in free-range chickens, while lighter yolks suggest a diet high in grains like wheat and corn. Eggs are not only affordable and versatile but also packed with protein. Celebrate local agriculture by incorporating farm-fresh eggs into your meals this month.
