Farmers who keep lots of chickens and donate eggs can mean the difference between a healthy family and a sick and weak family. If you have multiple chickens, you may have more eggs than you know what to do with. Donating them to those in need is a great solution.

People in need abound today. Their jobs are at risk, as are their homes. When they reach a point where they can no longer support themselves, they turn to the government for help. Food stamps, housing assistance, and places like the Tucson clothing drive are places they go for any help they can get.

Food banks and food pantries need donations from people who have something to give to supply these items to those who currently don’t have much. There may even be a donation drive nearby where they will come and collect the eggs you wish to donate.

Goodwill vans are always on the road picking up items of clothing, as well as kitchen utensils and pots, books, videos, picture frames and furniture. You can donate televisions, radios, computers, and so many other things, just so someone else can enjoy it. One man’s trash is, after all, another man’s treasure.

Eggs are such an important part of the diet. They have protein, among other important vitamins to keep a family strong and healthy. And they are so versatile that they can be eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They make great sandwiches, are good on salads, and can even be portable when hard. This is a simple and healthy lunch for anyone on the go, on a diet, or for a lunch box at school.

Some people think that they are strictly for breakfast. And there are many ways to use them for this first meal. They can be scrambled, fried, poached, or soft-boiled. They are also an ingredient in pancakes and French toast. And they can be heated in the microwave too, making them even easier to cook in so many ways. However, they can also be made into many different types of tortillas, which are also good for lunch and dinner. In fact, there are so many ways to prepare eggs that a family will probably never run out of recipes.

The eggs that people buy in the supermarket are sometimes expensive and they wonder how healthy they are. Some are enhanced with additional vitamins. Others come from chickens that have been fed hormones their entire lives. Farmer’s chickens are usually all natural, as are their eggs. It would be great if they shared these healthy wonders with less fortunate families.
