Monday, April 16, 2018

Colorado’s egg farmers are proud to provide high quality farm-fresh eggs to consumers throughout the state.

While this marks the 11th year in a row that CEP has collaborated with Feeding Colorado for Easter, it's estimated that Colorado's local egg farms altogether donate about 1 million eggs to the state's food banks throughout the year.
