Plenty of people keep more hens than their kitchen needs, and plenty of people down the road would rather buy those eggs than a carton from a shelf. What has been missing is a simple way to find each other. A hand-painted sign only reaches the people who already drive past it.
GetLocalEggs.com lists farms by town and shows who has eggs today. You search by zip code, ask a farm for a pickup, and the farm tells you where to come once it accepts. You pay the farm in person. No money for eggs ever passes through this site.
What farms get
A farm pays a small monthly subscription to be listed. In return it gets a page of its own, a way to post the day's eggs in one tap, pickup requests by email, and a ledger of its sales that exports to one CSV. Its home address stays private until it accepts a buyer's request.
Where we are
We started in Florida and add states as farms ask for them.
