Angel Acres are now sold exclusively through Nourish Food Club and are delivered nationwide to our food club members.

Nourish Food Club is a Private Member Association connecting you directly with traditional, unaltered, regeneratively raised farm-fresh foods that truly nourish your body and support optimal health.

Some weeks we are sold out! Because we’re not building an industrial egg factory. We grow slowly and intentionally, expanding through a trusted network of small regenerative farms. No shortcuts. No confinement. No compromise.

To ensure true farm freshness, our Egg Club runs on a 7-day harvest cycle. We restock weekly and our subscribers get first dibs. Next in line? The waitlist! Either check back each Friday or join the Waitlist below!

Decades of research spanning more than 70 years along with our own repeated fatty acid testing make one thing very clear: PUFAs in = PUFAs out.

Meaning, when chickens consume more polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) in their diet, those same fats are deposited directly into the egg yolk. This relationship is well established in the scientific literature. Diets high in soy, corn, distillers grains, and other PUFA-rich byproducts consistently produce eggs higher in total PUFAs and linoleic acid (an omega-6 PUFA).While developing our custom corn- and soy-free, low-PUFA feed, we have conducted repeated fatty acid analyses to confirm this effect firsthand (and to make sure my feed ration was working!).

Our eggs have been lab-tested multiple times since I started formulating my own feed in my garage in 2021 at Michigan State University, consistently showing a significantly lower PUFA and linoleic acid content compared to conventional and pasture-raised eggs fed standard diets. The results have consistently shown similar results.

Here is a link to our May 2025 testing, which showed 5.5% Linoleic Acid and 7.5% total Omega 6. (Very low PUFA

Here is a link to the fatty acid test result listed as Percentage of Fatty Acids from fall of 2024 comparing our eggs to Organic Vial Farms and Organic Cage Free.

With a 6.122% Linoleic Acid fatty acid percentage, for 2 eggs that is 10 grams of fat * .06122 = only 0.6 grams Linoleic Acid per 2 of our eggs. Low PUFA eggs! Compare that to 10 * .22894 = 2.3 grams Linoleic Acid per 2 eggs.

73% less Linoleic Acid!

Repeated exposure, day after day, this builds up inside of you and negatively impacts metabolism, gut health, and overall health.

The reality is that there are no 100% grass-fed chickens since chickens are omnivores, not vegetarians. 

Many people assume chickens can thrive on grass and bugs alone. In reality, that’s neither accurate nor humane. Chickens are omnivores with significant energy and protein requirements, especially laying hens. Grass and insects cannot reliably meet those needs year-round. Chickens have been domesticated for roughly 8,000 years and have always relied on humans for supplemental grain feeding alongside foraging. Expecting hens to live solely on pasture leads to nutrient deficiencies, poor health, and reduced welfare. Pasture is an important addition to a chicken’s diet, but intentional supplemental feed is essential for healthy birds and high-quality eggs.

So all chickens (even pasture-raised) require a supplemental feed.

The problem is most modern feeds are high in PUFAs due to soy and corn-byproducts (because that is what the system is designed for). So we rolled up our sleeves and designed out own feed!

Chickens are monogastric (single stomached) animals (like us), meaning they cannot get their required protein intake from grass alone (unlike ruminants such as cows). So while our chickens consume grass and bugs on pasture, they are supplemented with our custom-made corn- and soy-free feed.

All chickens (even pasture-raised ones) require supplemental feed, which can make up 70–90% of their diet. What they eat has a huge impact on the quality of the eggs they produce.

Corn and soy free means that the feed does not contain corn or soy. Typical commercial chicken feeds, even for pasture-raised hens, often include soybean meal, soy oil, “vegetable oil,” and corn-based ingredients like dried distillers grains. These ingredients are highly unsaturated and loaded with plant-based polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs), especially omega-6 linoleic acid (LA).

Here’s the key point: when a chicken eats more PUFAs, more PUFAs show up in her eggs. That’s a problem because most of us are already overexposed to these unstable fats from vegetable oils and conventional meats, something our ancestors never dealt with in such high quantities.

Unfortunately, many brands advertising “corn and soy free” eggs stop at removing corn and soy... but what do they replace them with?

Often, the substitutes are other high-PUFA seeds and oils, which doesn’t solve the PUFA problem... it just repackages it.

At Nourish and Angel Acres Egg Club we do things differently. We custom formulate our feed to be corn- and soy-free and low in PUFAs, producing eggs with 73% less linoleic acid than conventional eggs.

We not only formulate our own feed, but we custom make it in house so that we are responsible for sourcing all ingredients, milling, and delivery to partner farms.

When done the right way, corn and soy free eggs can lead to:

• Less unstable fats in your diet
• Lower oxidation and free radical formation
• Fewer hormone-disrupting compounds
• Eggs that are easier to digest
  

When done right, “corn and soy free” isn’t just an allergen label, it’s a way to restore eggs to the nutrient profile nature intended.

Not all “pasture-raised” eggs are created equal.

Most grocery-store pasture-raised eggs come from large industrial systems, often tens of thousands of hens housed in stationary barns with small outdoor access doors. While these systems are an improvement over cages, the scale is still industrial, and the feeding model is usually the same as conventional production.

And that’s the part most people miss: even pasture-raised hens get 70–90% of their calories from supplemental feed.

Pasture access matters, but feed matters just as much, because the fats and compounds in the feed become the fats and compounds in the egg.

The reality is that nearly all chickens in the U.S. are fed corn- and soy-based feed, which is high in omega-6 polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs). This is one of the biggest reasons modern eggs contain far more linoleic acid than eggs historically did.

That’s why Angel Acres took a completely different approach.

Instead of relying on standard off-the-shelf feed, we developed our own one-of-a-kind corn- and soy-free feed, intentionally formulated to be low in PUFAs, more aligned with how chickens were traditionally raised.

And the results are measurable:

Independent fatty acid testing shows that Angel Acres eggs contain 73% less omega-6 linoleic acid compared to leading store-bought pasture-raised eggs.

Angel Acres eggs aren’t just a label, they reflect a fundamentally different system:

small regenerative farms, real pasture rotation, and feed designed with metabolic integrity in mind.
