Market of Choice is setting themselves apart in the marketplace by offering verified high-welfare and sustainable eggs. Home Farm Foods is supplying Certified Animal Welfare Approved by A Greener World (AGW) eggs to Market of Choice in Bend. Market of Choice operates 11 locations of the family owned and operated stores throughout Oregon.
Retailers and consumers face a bewildering array of label claims when purchasing food. Some claims like natural or humanely raised are meaningless, while even Organic can fall well short of consumer expectations. Moving beyond the so-called greenwashing can be a challenge — particularly when millions of dollars are spent on marketing these food products.
Market of Choice is cutting through the food label confusion by selling Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW pasture-raised eggs at the Market of Choice in Bend. Home Farm Foods values their certification, which verifies their high-welfare and sustainable livestock management practices for their customers.
Cameron Gunther of Home Farm Foods, says, “We are thrilled that our Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW pasture-raised eggs will now be available in Bend’s Market of Choice. We are so grateful to have this opportunity to distribute our products to a wider market, and we’re proud to work with Market of Choice to supply their customers that want eggs with high-welfare livestock standards and verified sustainability.”
Corbin Serano, Grocery Manager at the Bend Market of Choice, says, “Market of Choice is proud to support Home Farm Food’s commitment to animal husbandry and welfare standards. As a long-time advocate of local producers, working with farmers such as Cameron helps us at Market of Choice continue our mission of providing market access to producers and top-notch nutritional access to consumers with AGW-certified pasture-raised eggs!”
