Farm Fresh Eggs at Woodside Farm Creamery of DE

Woodside Farm Creamery of Hockessin, DE makes some of the best ice cream we’ve ever tasted. Last year, they began raising chickens for the eggs, which they use in the ice cream made from milk from their cows! Well, the ice cream business is closed in winter, but the chickens don’t know and don’t care. That’s where you come in. The farm has begun selling those eggs at the farm, Wednesdays and Fridays, 3 p.m. until 6 p.m. Get ’em while you can. We assume once the ice cream business reopens, those eggs will be spoken for.
