️Egg prices are skyrocketing again—but why? In this episode of the Dust'er Mud Podcast, we break down the real reasons behind rising egg prices, including:

✅ Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and mass flock culling ✅ New cage-free laws impacting large-scale egg producers ✅ The real struggle of small farms balancing fair pricing & ethical food sales

As small-scale farmers, we have to navigate the fine line between making a sustainable living and ensuring food remains accessible. Is there a moral dilemma when pricing food? How do supply and demand, cost of production, and consumer expectations impact how eggs are priced?

Why do consumers expect premium food at bargain prices? Should small farms raise prices just because the market does? What does “fair pricing” actually mean when selling food?

We get real and raw about the business of food—something big corporations don’t want you to think about.

Listen now and join the conversation in the comments! Do you think small farms should price eggs based on market trends or their actual cost of production?
