Wild Acres is a small family-owned farm that sells free-range colourful award-winning eating eggs. We are located in Spallumcheen, British Columbia in the North Okanagan region.
We believe in providing our poultry with a happy old-fashioned farm life. Our hens have free access to quality outdoor ranges where they enjoy wholesome food, unlimited water, and access to herbs, greens, and sunshine year-round. Our poultry can be seen from our farm gate running around and enjoying themselves under our giant willow tree and growing permaculture food forest.
We wash, weigh, and grade our fresh farm eggs. They are sold in new cartons and refrigerated prior to sale.
BC is the first province in Canada to set standards for free-range birds.

Are you sensitive to chicken eggs, have an egg allergy or are you a baker who has experienced the vast superiority of baking with duck eggs?
Aside from the delicious richness of the free-range duck egg, there are other benefits as well:
-Duck eggs stay fresher longer, due to their thicker shell.
-Duck eggs are richer, with more albumen, which makes cakes and other pastries fluffier.
-Duck eggs have more Omega-3 fatty acids.
-People who cannot eat chicken eggs, due to allergies, can often eat duck eggs.
-Large chicken eggs are 53-63 grams but our Jumbo-sized duck eggs are 65-75 grams each!
