Farm Fresh Eggs, Fall Edition

Farm Fresh Eggs — Fall Edition

There’s just something about cooking with farm-fresh eggs in the fall. Maybe it’s the golden yolks that match the color of the leaves, or maybe it’s the comfort of slow mornings and hearty meals that make this season feel extra special.

Here on the farm, our hens are fluffing up for cooler days. As the daylight shortens, egg production naturally slows a bit — but the eggs we do gather are rich, flavorful, and feel like little gifts each morning. (If you’ve ever wondered why hens lay fewer eggs in the fall, here’s a great article that explains it).

🍳 Farm-to-Table Fall Cooking

Fall is when the kitchen comes alive again — warm breakfasts, cozy baking, and comfort foods that fill the whole house with good smells.

A few of our favorite ways to use farm eggs this time of year:

  • Pumpkin Bread with Farm Eggs: Try this classic pumpkin bread recipe — the deep flavor of real eggs makes it rich and moist.

  • Rustic Fall Quiche: Layer in caramelized onions, spinach, and goat cheese for a perfect Sunday brunch. We love this cast iron pie dish for even baking.

  • Golden Egg Breakfast Skillet: Add roasted sweet potatoes, kale, and crispy bacon — all topped with perfectly fried eggs. Try a farmhouse-style skillet if you don’t already have one.

For a true farm touch, keep your eggs displayed in a ceramic egg tray — they look beautiful on the counter and are easy to grab when cooking.

🍁 Cozy Fall Mornings

There’s something sacred about that quiet moment before the day starts — when the kettle’s whistling, the hens are just waking up, and the farm feels peaceful. That’s when the small rituals matter most.

If you’re recreating that cozy farm morning at home, here are a few of our favorites:

🧺 Farm Life, Slowed Down

Fall reminds us that not everything has to be fast. The hens take their time. We take our time. And that’s okay. Every egg, every bloom, and every crisp morning holds a little story of its own.

If you visit the farm, take a moment to peek into the coop or grab a few photos by the mural. We’d love for you to share your favorite fall moments with #BloomWithAPurpose — because everyone’s version of growth and change deserves to be celebrated.

Hi, I’m Carie!

I’m a Missouri flower grower with a love for turning soil, seeds, and sunshine into armfuls of blooms. On our family farm, I spend my days growing dahlias, zinnias, and all the little flowers that make each season feel special. Gardening isn’t always perfect—sometimes it’s messy, unpredictable, and full of lessons—but that’s what makes it so rewarding.

Through this blog, I share stories from the garden, tips for growing cut flowers, and a peek into life on the farm here in the Midwest. My hope is to encourage you to dig in, grow something beautiful, and enjoy the simple joys that flowers bring..
