• Letters From School Kids

  Here are some of our favorite letters, written after Sharman’s visits to local schools. We have left the creative spelling the way we received it.

• Thanks, Sandy.

  I switched to your eggs several months ago. I was quite pleased when I purchased some of your eggs from Costco’s here in Tucson, AZ. No smell, less worries about bad eggs. Then this massive recall hit and I read more about your farm and your process. Thank you for a job well done. Sign me a satisfied and now lifetime customer.

• The nationwide egg recall has spurred LOTS of calls and emails, but few as nice as this one.

  Just wanted to thank you for providing safe eggs for my family and
  grandchildren. We get our eggs at Ron’s IGA in Black Canyon City and
  have never worried about their safety because of your excellent reputation.
  The zoo coupons are the icing on the cake.

  Thanks again,
  The Stevens family

• We appreciate letters like this very much.

  I just wanted to send a note of appreciation. It is nice to have a family run company in your state that you can trust to have your best interests at heart. I am an Arizona native, and buy your product regularly from Bashas’ stores.

  Thank you,
  Allison Kulow
