Where Do Eggs Come From?

Eggs Meanwood Leeds Farm

Where do eggs come from? My little sister, not so little now, taught in a school in North London and many of the children thought eggs came from Tesco. My sister used to take the kids out of school to an urban farm and show these city dwellers where the food they ate came from.

Here in Leeds not far from the city centre is Meanwood Valley Urban Farm and today I was driving and saw the sign to the farm and called in. I have, despite living and working in Leeds from many years, never been to the Meanwood Valley Urban Farm so I called in to look around and get some pictures for the Leeds daily photo.

This picture is a couple of hens eggs in amongst straw in a hen house at the farm, the rooster looked quite put out when I put my head in to get this photo.

I shall be posting more pictures and information about this urban farm over the next few days.
