Did you know that eggs have a season? They kind of do! When the days get longer and there's more light, chickens begin to lay more prolifically than they did over the winter. Free range birds are able to eat the tender green shoots that are coming up through the melting snow. It's the perfect time to make an omelet! You can stock up on eggs this Saturday, April 2, from several Bennington Farmers' Market vendors, including Hilltop Farm, Threat Neutralized Bakery, and Firefly Farm! Come see us from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Benn Hi, 650 Main Street.

Also, mark your calendars for May 7, when we return to the Deer Park for our first outdoor market of the summer season!
