FarmerJawn, a Black woman-owned farm in Pennsylvania, is giving away 300 dozen eggs to New Yorkers this weekend to help alleviate the burden of soaring egg prices. The giveaway starts in Bed-Stuy and concludes in Harlem, with specific locations and times for distribution. Owner Christa Barfield highlights the community’s need for affordable eggs amid the current crisis while advocating for awareness of local farmers. FarmerJawn focuses on regenerative organic farming aimed at supporting underserved communities, providing fresh, chemical-free foods, and raising awareness about food sourcing and security in urban areas.
Egg prices have been so unreal-and we're tired of hearing about it. That's why when we read that FarmerJawn, a Black woman-owned farm in Pennsylvania, is giving away 300 dozen eggs.
Owner Christa Barfield said in an IG Reel said 'You say they call us the Robin Hood of eggs simply because eggs are absolutely through the roof.'
Knowing who your farmer is and where your eggs come from can lessen the anxiety that comes with the threat of bird flu.
FarmerJawn is a 128-acre working farm that does regenerative organic food production by and for underserved communities.
