Factoid:

If we weren't local...

If Hickman's shipped in all our eggs from the Midwest we would consume 1,165,701 gallons of diesel fuel per year. By supplying eggs locally, we prevent the equivalent of 12,822 tons of carbon from being released into the atmosphere , which is the equivalent of removing 400 cars off the road that are driven 15,000 miles annually.
