East and North Yorkshire farmers collaborate for Yorkshire cancer charity

The innovative East Yorkshire egg marketing co-operative EggSell has lent its support to a North Yorkshire charity fundraiser in celebration of Farmhouse Breakfast Week (20th – 26th January)

EggSell Producers Ltd will provide 30 dozen of its best free range eggs to feed 140 mouths over the two day fundraiser hosted by Patricia Knox at Mill Close Farm in Patrick Brompton in Bedale on 23rd and 24th of January. A Farm Stay member, Patricia is also involved with Yorkshire Cancer Research who will benefit from the initiative.

Caroline Elliott from Bewholme is one of the founders of EggSell Producers Ltd and is delighted to support this event; "We have all been touched by cancer in some way and it's great to be able to reward an initiative for cancer treatment in our region and support Yorkshire's farming community at the same time."

EggSell Producers Ltd is a new and enthusiastic co-operative of egg producers that aims to build a new relationship between the farmer and the retailer whilst reducing food miles and ensuring a good return for everyone and providing the public with wholesome and tasty eggs from chickens that are free to roam.

EggSell welcomes enquiries from producers who already keep hens or from farmers or small holders who may be thinking about diversification (a free advice service is all part of the co-operative's commitment to its members).
