About Keenan Family Farms

Chelsea and James Keenan moved from Surrey to a thirty-five acre property on Yankee Flats Road in Silver Creek in 2017, and built the farm from scratch.

They raise free-range laying hens on a non-GMO diet that is free of both corn and soy, alongside pasture-raised pork and lamb. They won an expansion quota through BC Egg's New Producer Program.

The eggs are what the shop carries, and they are a staple rather than a seasonal item. The farm is not certified organic; it has been Animal Welfare Approved by A Greener World since 2019. The Keenans also own Black Forest Noodle Co, whose noodles are made with these eggs.

Why we work with them

Chelsea and James built this farm from nothing on thirty-five acres in 2017, and thought hard about the feed. Corn-free and soy-free is more expensive and more work, and it changes the egg.

Animal Welfare Approved since 2019, which is a stricter thing to earn than most people realise. Eggs are a weekly staple for our customers, so we care a great deal about whose they are.
