Since eggs from a local farm don't have to go through a big factory to be washed and packaged and distributed, they tend to get to your house more quickly. Most eggs last about 4-7 weeks in the fridge - many times they'll last longer than the expiration date. To test egg freshness, fill a bowl with cold water and place the egg inside. If it sinks immediately and lays on its side, it's fresh - there are no air holes. However if the egg floats and is more upright, it is not as fresh.Ann Piercehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00353786006327154354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555456370022879857.post-19645398738262522332010-07-19T13:53:21.755-06:002010-07-19T13:53:21.755-06:00Do farm fresh eggs last longer than the regular gr...Do farm fresh eggs last longer than the regular grocery store type egg?Hillaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09906041165080510363noreply@blogger.com
