At Fooditude, great food starts with great suppliers. We work with partners who care as much about quality, sustainability and doing things the right way as we do. That's why seasonal, locally sourced ingredients are at the heart of every menu we create, bringing fresh, flavour-packed lunches to offices every day.
One of those partners is Rookery Farm, our organic egg supplier. Their commitment to quality, animal welfare and sustainable farming makes them a natural fit for the way we do things.
Rookery Farm
Rookery Farm is a family-run organic farm on the coast of West Sussex that has been producing high-quality, organic eggs for the last 30 years. As an organic farm, they avoid herbicides, insecticides and artificial fertilisers. Their approach is different to many other organic and free-range farms as they use portable hen houses that move hens to fresh pastures on rotation, keeping the land healthy and the chickens happy to lay the finest eggs.
Why we love Rookery Farm eggs
Everything about the Rookery Farm’s approach to egg production speaks to a true labour of love. From rearing their own range of traditional chicken breeds to collecting, sorting, and packing eggs by hand, the care and attention given at each step is a testament to their passion for welfare-led organic farming.
Not only do they ensure the best environment and production of organic eggs, but Rookery Farm also ensures it gives back to the land it farms. By regularly moving their hens to different pastures and leaving areas around the farm untouched, the natural land can regrow – providing fresh, healthy habitats for other wildlife.
Why Rookery eggs make all the difference
We get it, they’re just eggs, right? Many egg production farms can pump out eggs at a ridiculous rate to the detriment of their animals’ welfare and the quality of the produce. At the Rookery Farm, this isn’t the case. The care, time and attention given to Rookery Farm’s flock results in happier chickens, better eggs, and healthier land. By partnering with suppliers like Rookery Farm, we can be confident that the ingredients we cook with deliver on quality, flavour and a lower environmental impact.
