Giveaway has ended and winner has been contacted! Thank you all for entering and be sure to check out all the latest giveways (listed at the top of the left sidebar!).
Trying to switch your entire family over to organic and more natural products can seem like a huge undertaking at first! I know, I’ve been there! But each little choice you make is making a difference. I’m happy to tell you though that choosing the right eggs is easy with Horizon!
I’ve talked before about their wonderful milk products that my sons love, so when they contacted me to see if I’d be willing to try out their eggs I was thrilled to say yes. You see, our family goes through a lot of eggs. At least 3 dozen eggs per week are consumed around here…about half of the breakfasts for the boys consist of eggs to some extent.
So, when my kids are consuming that much of one product why wouldn’t I look for the healthiest available? The trick with going Organic on a frugal family budget is finding the best value while not compromising on health. Sounds like an oxymoron, but really it’s possible.
That gets us to the facts!
Horizon Organic Eggs are Certified Organic to ensure that the hens, their feed, and the eggs never come into contact with added hormones, antibiotics, or pesticides. The hens are fed an organic vegetarian feed. Our eggs are produced on small family farms across the country when the hens are never confined to cages and they are provided with access to the outdoors.
I don’t know if organic eggs taste better because they are better or because we simply KNOW they’re better, but either way, it’s worth it to grab the best for my growing boys! I also have to admit that I love the fact that by purchasing Horizon Eggs, my family is supporting small family farms!
Horizon is offering on lucky commenter the opportunity to win a fabulous Eggcelent Chef Pack. This great pack includes coupons for free Horizon Organic Eggs, and some tools to help you cook them up. To enter, simply visit Horizon’s website, then come back here and leave a comment telling me why you’d like to start buying Organic eggs (or if you already do, tell us what you think).
Be sure to take a peek at my giveaway policies and while you’re there read up on all the ways you can get extra entries! The quickest ones are to stumble the post and to tweet about it. This giveaway is open to US addresses only, will end May 20th and is void where prohibited.

I’d love to try them because the hens they come from are not treated with antibiotics or hormones…So many things are these days and that’s really scary! Thanks for the chance to win some!

They DO taste better! We have been a fan of the milk for years… we call the milk with DHA “smart milk”.. The question around here is ” Do you want smart milk or stupid milk?”
Wish it was cheaper though, but I think the overall goodness out weighs the cost.

We totally love Horizon Eggs! We used to raise our own chickens and have fresh eggs all the time. Horizon eggs are as close as fresh as we can find in the store. Horizon Rocks!

I would love to try them because I tried their milk and now I won’t buy anything else. I have a feeling that might happen with their eggs, stoo! I’m also trying to add more organic foods to my family’s diet.

When I read how humanely the chickens are treated, that gives me reasons to choose organic.

I’ve been buying organic eggs for years now. I love them because they taste better and the animals are treated humanely. This is a great giveaway. I hope someone deserving wins! Going organic is so much healthier and better for our world.

I love Horizon eggs – I only buy other brands when I can’t find them (if my store is out of stock)…..I really think they do taste better.
P.S. Have a wonderful Mother’s Day tomorrow Shera! I am spending it with my mom but will be thinking about all my friends who are mothers too…..

I like that the chickens have a good life and are free to run around:
The incredible egg is a great source of protein and vitamin D. Great-tasting Horizon Organic® eggs come from cage-free hens that have the freedom to roam.

We use only organic eggs, they really do taste better. The only better thing is when you’ve got a friend with some chickens. The only thing you have to watch out for is changes in your cooking, usually for the better!

After being tested for the amount of vitamin D I had in my body and being told I was deficient I went on a hunt to see how I could up it naturally. The Horizon Eggs were just the thing.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:33 am 15
I want them so I can give my kiddo the BEST!
May 11th, 2009 at 9:09 am 16
We only buy Horizon Cage-free eggs in our home. That way we know the animals are being treated well and that we are getting the best nutrients from our eggs.
May 11th, 2009 at 9:41 am 17

I do buy organic eggs already. I think it’s important to buy organic dairy items to avoid all of the hormones and pesticides. Ick!

I ONLY buy cage free eggs and Horizon eggs are delicious!
May 11th, 2009 at 4:52 pm 23
I try to buy only cage free but would love to switch to organic (I don’t like all those hormones). They are pricey though. So it is hard. I am so glad they are now offering egg whites. I always buy Egg Beaters, now I will need to look at the Horizon product. Thanks for linking to their website. I would have not known otherwise.

Not only are organic eggs better but the eggs from chickens that aren’t fed junk and preservatives and they are good for me. I already buy organic eggs and will never go back to the regular ones.

May 12th, 2009 at 7:26 am 31
I love organic eggs! You can tell they have more nutrients because the yolks are darker and the shells are thicker. Plus you know the chickens were fed (and probably treated) better.

Why I’d like to start buying Organic Eggs is because the incredible egg is a great source of protein and vitamin D. Great-tasting Horizon Organic® eggs come from cage-free hens that have the freedom to roam. They eat fresh 100% organic vegetarian feed and, of course, are never treated with antibiotics or growth hormones.
May 12th, 2009 at 1:10 pm 33
I try to buy organic products whenever I can. I already buy Horizon organic milk for my kids, and I like their products.

No hormones
May 12th, 2009 at 5:36 pm 35
Food produced without antibiotics, added growth hormones or pesticides means better health and a cleaner environment. I’d like to try these also to see if I can tell the difference!

Right here on the website I became convinced
“Food produced without antibiotics, added growth hormones or pesticides means better health and a cleaner environment.” Ceertainly want to investigate further!

May 18th, 2009 at 10:21 am 45
I have been trying to buy organic as much as possible, since we don’t know what artificial food additives and preservatives, growth hormones, pesticides, and other processing does to our health. I haven’t tried Horizon eggs yet, but would definitely consider it.
May 18th, 2009 at 12:20 pm 46
I already buy organic eggs from free-roaming hens because chickens shouldn’t be abused for my omelet.
May 18th, 2009 at 12:23 pm 47
I like that the eggs/chickens are not treated with hormones or antibiotics.

I started buying organic eggs because I do not want my son cosuming unneeded antibiotics, growth hormones, etc. They taste better anyway.

I would like to start buying organic eggs because besides the nutritional elements, the chickens are treated well.
