- Amish Stopped Selling Their Fresh Eggs Are They Hoarding Them
We went to a local amish store today to price eggs and maybe even buy some to see if we could tell a difference but to our surprise they have stopped selling fresh farm eggs to the local community.

I don’t think they’re “hoarding” the eggs 🥚 I think it’s more about supplying their community first. As it should be. Another 100,000 chickens were torched in Connecticut this past weekend.
So sickening! They're sure trying to starve us!!!!
@@barbaratucker7125
It’s more that they want us to eat lab meat and cockroach milk while the “elites” eat steak. They want one chicken producer, one egg producer. For ALL the people.
List of closures, fires, sabotaging farms, factories and cattle all around states. Tomato 🍅 jelly is like chutney , a little cream cheese jelly on crackers good. Nice as ordeurves.
We are supposed to help our own families and communities. If you want to store eggs for months, look how the Amish store their fresh eggs in hydrated lime.
Fire where they died is reported, but "torched"? As in they did it on purpose?
We need to wake up. I'll never blame the Amish
I stopped going to Tractor Supply, and now I get all my animals food from the Amish. I love the Amish.
Yep we really like our Amish community
I like the simple living and wisdom of the Amish. I don't like their control of people. Cult like .. nope not me
Jim... Did you hear about the 3rd largest egg producers building burned to the ground? Another conspiracy theory with someone trying to take our food supply?
It sounds fishy the hens not laying eggs, when have you ever heard of that. It's the feed and the company need to be held accountable and widely talked about on the news
Amish are good people. There is no shortage of food in our area from them including fresh eggs 😎. I get fresh milk and bread from our nearby store also, as well as awesome home made desserts 😊
I have 4 chickens that came of age late fall. We get 4 eggs a day. They free range in my backyard and only have to feed them when the ground is covered in snow. I do give them scratch and table scraps. I’m in the city so limited to 4 with no roosters. I get jumbo eggs. I also share my eggs with friends and family.
Keep in mind you can’t blanket the horses once they are wet. They will be colder. They do pretty well with cold
My Grandpa used to eat tomato jam. He would get it for his lunches. We used to make pickled eggs. We saved the pickle juice from dill pickles then put hard boiled eggs in the juice. Have you guys ever had the cashew crunch that the Amish make? It is SO good.
You can also use Beets
I put a baby carrot in some store bought pickle juice and sure enough when I ate it a week later it tasted like a dill pickled carrot 😅
Evening blessings Dutch and family 🙏🙏
YES the egg shortage is ridiculous but thank God you have food to eat a lot of people don't have anything. I help out others when they need it and that's a real blessing to them as well as myself
Good evening from some very rural Northwoods Maine homesteaders. Loved the video, thanks, and keep up the good works that you do. Our chicken egg supply is low, (2 flats). Since we changed feed and are now supplementing heavily with vegs/grains we've grown along with some deer, duck & rabbit meat from our stores, things are getting better. (Here in Maine, our ducks > 1 yr entirely cease laying for 3 months, so no way to know on duck eggs). I wish & pray for success for all of us on here at being self-sustainable. God bless!
Our chicken coop was crushed by a tree the end of 2021 and lost our flock but since have gotten about 20ish more hens and just ordered 25 more. Our new babies will be here in about 2 weeks. Very excited.
What are you paying for each bird?
I live in the biggest Amish community in Kentucky. I go to the local Amish grocery regularly. There's no shortage of eggs and they're priced right. However my family is blessed because our Amish friends give us all the fresh eggs we can eat. So I guess you can say there's no egg shortage here 👍
My mom made tomato jam. My dad loved it! Love pickled eggs.
Tomato jam is good.
The hair on the horses has an insulating area in the middle that keeps them warm, and a drip line runs off much like a big round bale of hay. don't brush while they are wet and/or icy. Hay fed keeps their internal furnace stoked for warmth.
Smart for them to look out for their own community's first
I love how hope was holding on to Hayden coming out of the store, that was so sweet. Hope you get some hens from the eggs
Yes....they r very sweet girls! Dutch and Brandi are raising very , very nice young ladies....most families can learn from them in today's society...I love seeing their children in the videos interacting with their parents!!! And of course, love the pets!!!
I was raised on the northwest corner of Delaware. It's known as the Wedge. Very close to the Pennsylvania Dutch community. Love tomato jam. Helped my grand grandparents and grandparents can and bake. Ahhh family time. Now my children are teaching my grandchildren. I help when I visit.
If the horses have snow/ice on their backs, it is a good indication of them having excellent insulation - fur, body weight, health.
Homestead heart had a really good video about the feed and chickens today. Really good information on how the feed affected their chickens and ducks. They have now changed up and not buying from tractor supply.
Tomato Jam can be either sweet or savoury. Both are good for different dishes and should be paired accordingly. Pickled eggs depend on the spices and vinegars used.
Greetings from East Texas! Glad y’all made it home safe. Many people like Tomato Jam. Especially with crackers and cream cheese or havarti cheese.
The girls are just growing like weeds, they're so sweet, just lovely little ladies... You & Brandi are doing such a great job raising them....God bless y'all❤ (Absolutely agree about the self reliance )
This egg “shortage” is getting crazy!
There is no real shortage lol they cause it all for mass chaos
There is no shortage. The egg industry is creating a artificial shortage. Hens cut egg production in January, February, and March. There is no problem with TSC layer mix. What people don't know is that the layer mix for TSC is also bagged and sold under other brand names.
@@robinglauser5626 TSC feed is made by Purina Animal Nutrition.
@@jimr9898 I know. I used to run a farm store and would go to the factory to buy it wholesale. Diamond Dog food makes 5 different Dog food brands and 3 different cat foods at the processing facility in Dumas Arkansas.
I grew up eating tomato jam that my grandmother made with tomato's from our garden. She put a
Slice of lemon in each jar. We enjoyed it, and yes it was very sweet!
The Amish store is absolutely beautiful! So clean & organized & fantastic varieties of everything! By the way, Tomato Jam is really good! My aunt used to make it when we were kids! The sweet & spicy kind is best!
It's been 30 yrs since I made tomato jam. I made mine out of different types of heirloom tomatoes and it would give them a different flavor. My favorite was made out of Cherokee Purple heirlooms because Cherokee Purple tomatoes gave the jam a "smokey" flavor. I use to make jalapeno/habanero pepper jelly and my family and friends loved it - a hot a sweet jelly that tasted great. I don't know about the Amish and no fresh eggs but I always say you take care of your family and friends first during hard times.
Oh, my gosh, I love Cherokee Purple.
I also love shopping at the Amishstores. I used to go back to Missouri with my dad and we stopped in at a few of those little roadside stands also. They had the best peanut brittle❣️
The key to peanut brittle is the temperature!
My dad's favorite jam is tomato, but I haven't been able to find it for years. Now I know where to find it. Thank you.
If they have stopped selling eggs I'm sure it's a good reason, like anyone else they are going to look out for their own first, my chickens always slow up on laying in the winter time .
My Grandmother made tomato preserves every year. It was awesome.
My wife and I have gotten pretty tight with our Mennonite neighbors over the years and we shop their market every weekend. I actually thought your video was our local Mennonite market, they sell many of the same products. Mrs. Miller's tomatoe jam is surprisingly good on toast.👍🏼
Tomato jam is great on cheeseburgers with onions. Pickled eggs are pretty damn good as the girls get older they will appreciate the taste later in life just like we did.
Supplying their own community first makes absolute sense really. I have an aunt who makes jam out of green tomatoes and jello mix and believe it or not it was pretty good too tastes great on homemade buscuits home churned butter and green tomatoe jelly.
It is normal for chickens to stop laying eggs in the fall and into the winter. My free-range chickens stop laying right after the fall equinox in September. They just started laying again. They are probably not selling fresh eggs, because they don't have enough to sell right now. If it goes on into the spring that would seem significant.
I agree part of this is the normal cycle of hens.
My chickens never stopped laying
True chickens have their own season of laying and so forth but have you seen the Amish layouts for their chickens? They're chickens *Amish chicken farms) are undercover and they're warm they're like longhouses or long green houses. Very interesting setup they have...
@@lindavonh131 That's great!
If you got chickens that absolutely stop laying you got the wrong chickens
Thank you Dutch and family for a great video. Stay warm and safe!! God Bless all and much love 🙏❤️✝️🤗😘🥰😍
Love your videos and enjoy watching them every time they come on. May the Lord bless and protect you and your family and the animals. We have snow
Like you said the Amish have a large community. I guess it would take Alot of eggs to feed all of them.
Especially when not only Breakfast, but in all the baking they do also.
I've never heard of Tomato jam.
I love going into Amish stores. We had 1 up in mnts of NC we love shopping at. Because of hubby's COPD we moved back to middle of the state to be closer to our kids.
No Amish stores around ☹️
Stay safe, warm & dry
Blessings on your Family 🙏🙏🌹🙏🙏🙏
Love 🌻 from NC 💜
That's cool y'all are gonna help your group of friends and family with eggs. That's what I think the Amish are doing for their community. I just wish I knew some friends or family that would have chickens. When I used to work, there were several people who had chickens and were willing to give away their eggs. All ya had ta do was bring in an egg carton. So nice to see that your girls were givin different foods a try. Personally I like to try different foods also. I'd even try the tomato jam. Thanks for an interesting video. God bless and stay warm! 😊
I never had co-workers that gave away eggs, but did usually have at least one each place that sold their eggs to us. I sure miss that!
Yes, we were those folks that would give away fresh eggs for free, in the hope that others would get the idea and start raising their own. I had one fellow who did it. Now we have gotten rid of excess hens due to higher food bills and only have enough for family and close friends. Learning time is over.
@@shelahogletree7711 That saddens me to hear. I never minded paying for the farm eggs my friends brought to work. I was happy to help support their efforts and to buy what they needed for their birds and gardens. They often would bring us free produce they grew, so paying for the eggs was nothing. sure miss that!
They stopped because the govt/FDA went after them.
"We need to test for bird flu..."
"You have to submit to laying area inspections..."
"You need licensing to sell..."
"Is this FDA approved?"
"We're going to have to fine you for that..."
Chickens do lay less in the winter and I’ve also heard that with the disease that infected some of the large chicken farms had something to do with the higher egg prices because they had to cull their entire flocks. Who really knows though! I’m just glad I have my own chickens and eggs.
Be careful who you watch and listen to for your information. Main stream is trying to make it seem like it's from a chicken disease. Don't let them fool you. They just burned down a chicken plant in Connecticut. They've been burning down chicken plants to move everything towards government control and making us eventually have to rely on them for our food.
We LOVE tomato preserves! It's a generational recipe passed down over 5 generations. It's great on buttered toast in the morning.
When you go to the amish store next time. I highly recommend the pickled eggs in pickled beet juice(from pickled beets). My grandma ( Prussian heritage) always had a jar in the fridge for us grandkids. Sometimes make devil eggs out of them. Yum yum.
🤤🤤
My brother just told me that the store he goes to in Washington state hasn't had eggs for three weeks, so he had to go to another store to get some.
Use the tomato jam on grilled cheese or burgers. Its way better heated by the food. I love beet eggs and pickled beets- we make them all the time. my grandfather was PA Dutch, so we always had a plethora of Amish foods in the house. Shoofly pie is one of my favorites.
As kids we spread it on pimiento cheese sandwiches too.
My Grandmother used to make tomato jam. Always put a cinnamon stick in it. Still like today.
My Grandmother Shipley used to make tomato preserves. She would put a piece of lemon rind in each jar, and we kids would fight over it. It was delicious!
I make green tomato jelly. It's flavored with jello! I tend to make odd flavors, the green tomatoes actually have very little flavor, kinda spicy.
I also make iced tea jelly >> lemon or cinnamon spiced, the only time I do SWEET tea.
Impressed your kids are willing to try different foods.i love tomato jam - it is really hard to find.
Y’all stay warm & safe.
Tomato jam? Never heard of it. I would love the pickled eggs and the jam. Amish are very good at food stuff. Thanks for the video. Be careful on those slick roads, and the walking areas with ice. Shuffle walk and hold on to something if available.
Tomato jelly/preserves is awesome.
I really enjoyed the at home taste testing. The girls were good sports to try the pickled eggs and tomato jam. I went to a local store to by my favorite local eggs. They must have sold out. Hope the hatching goes well. Blessings to you all. ❤
Absolutely! We make tomato jam almost every year. If I had to describe it. I would say similar to strawberry jam with cinnamon and clove.
My horses were the sa me,both thunder storms or blizzards. They actually had ice cycles hanging from bellies.
Good luck.and keep on brushing.😊
Hello Chouteau here checking in. I buy eggs from Amish farm for 3.00 a dozen. Same farm for over 10 years. It was nice meeting your family a few weeks back. Stay safe in our crazy weather.
I make pickled eggs from my grandmother’s recipes. I’m not much of a jam eater. I make eggs with beet juice for red and kitchen bouquets for my regular ones. Have a jar in the refrigerator at all times.
You guys stay warm and safe God bless you all 🙏❤️
Dutch 18 degrees would be a blessing. We currently have -5 and tonight we are looking at -25 here in Wisconsin. We finally got our chickens back to laying eggs. We stopped feeding the Tractor Supply feed and went to a local feed also we cooked up rice and beans which seemed to turn them around.
Holy cold, where in Wisconsin are you.. here in central Wi., we are at 3 degrees with a windchill of -7. Wish I had a wood stove about now, my furnace can't keep up(in a mobile home).
I wonder if that Amish store does mail order, or has a website. My goodness alot of that stuff looks so good!
That's a real nice looking store. I think they are getting less eggs and have to keep what they get for their people. Good luck with hatching the eggs. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
No shortage here in Hamilton Ontario. however our Eggs have gone up in prizes. I miss going to our Mennonite Store for their delicious Pies and Salami. Their produce is Organic and delicious.
My mom use to make cherry tomato jam. Lol , Tucker Carlson had a show on the egg shortage, show cased the pride chicken layer feed, purina . My girls are laying 5 to 8 eggs a day. I mix sunflower seeds with corn or cracked corn, oats, grit, oyster shells, plus I feed them table scapes, tuna, sardines. And alfalfa every 3 days.
Hi Dutch and Family. Great video Girls are getting big. House is looking great. Stay safe and warm. God bless and love yall 💖💖
We have just 5 hens. They haven't laid in a month. We don't feed TSC feed. Today we got 2 eggs!
I love tomato jam. My mom used to make it, in fact I just opened my last pint. If I want more, I'll have to make it myself. lol Another thing you should try is Green Tomato Pie. It's a southern thing. It has the consistency of an apple pie, but tastes like lemon, because it has whole sliced lemon in it. My maternal grandmother was from Arkansas and we learned a lot of different foods from her.
My mama made tomato preserves.
And she even made watermelon rind preserves. So good!
Never heard of tomato jam. When my Mom and Dad was alive their chickens would stop laying when the first cold spell came. When it got really cold they put a light in the hen house and they started laying again. Don’t forget about the bird flu and all the layers that had to be put down.
We just visited a small Amish store in Kentucky. The aroma of fresh baked bread and pastries was amazing...
You are such a great friend to try to help others have hens. The girls are growing up so much, it was nice to see the family. Take care, stay warm ❤️🙏🐓🐓🐓🐓🙏❤️
Nice's i love your new video ti awesome video I like the snowfall 🌨️💨🌨️🤗😘
In my part of Ohio the Amish store still has eggs and several Amish homes are selling them $2 a dozen.
I made my own green tomato jam this fall before it got cold had a lot of green tomatoes and didn't want him to free so I picked them and made Green tomato jam and we've been eating it , it's not bad. Stay Blessed y'all ☺️
Tomato jam is actually good. Same with beet jelly. I made mine with either strawberry jell or raspberry flavored. Both were really good. If the egg tastes like dill pickles, I would be willing to try them.
Maybe the pickled eggs would work well in potato or pasta salads. Just a thought. Give the girls a chance to try again in a week or two. Kids can have aversions to things that are completely new until they get used to it.
You're a good daddy you can tell you have a good heart with your girls that's very special
The looks on your kids faces tasting the tomato jam was priceless. No words were needed whether or not they liked it. Our hens should start laying in a few weeks. 🤞 We live in Northwest Arkansas. Had a bunch of sleet here too.
Enjoyed everything ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ never heard of tomato jam. Thank you for sharing have a wonderful evening ❤️ 😊
I bought some pepper jelly recently. It was pretty good but had a little kick to it. This past year I made green tomato relish. It turned out really good and is great on sausage dogs.
Most of those products are made here in Ohio where I live, Millersburg. Try the Dutch Apple Pie Jam
Good evening from Syracuse NY everyone thank you for sharing your adventures and your farm
I know I'd be driving out to the Amish community to buy pickled eggs & a few of their baked goods. They stick to all their home grown good & produce using their heritage recipes. They are quite good!! They are most likely keeping the eggs to share with their close family farm. That's something that Americans have stopped doing since moving into the big cities. This problem stems from the government & granaries. They more than likely told Purina to cut way back on the quality of protein in the grain. When you reduce the quality of the grain the chickens will lay less eggs. I would try buying your grain from a local farm and look at the protein in the package, it needs to be above 18 to 21 percent. Good luck with your farm, I pray with a higher grain quality, your chickens will start producing. Kids normally won't like pickled eggs unless they enjoy a good Dill pickle!! In Louisiana even bars sell pickles.🌴🌹
Eggs have gotten up to $9 a dozen here (Central California) and are most commonly in the $5 range. When my parent's moved here 4 years ago eggs were on sale for 45 cents. We just do without.
I grew up on a farm in Texas and we made tomato preserves as well as tomato dumplings.
Tomato dumplings?
The kids crack me up lol. My kids are all teenagers now and they have and will eat anything that doesn't eat them first! We do an Asian style pickled eggs here, made with soy sauce, thin sliced ginger, whole green onions and carrot sticks also pickled in with them and everyone loves them. As far as chickens, mine haven't laid a thing in months. We've started adding in more scraps lately and hopefully that will help. There's an old farmers tale that says a rounder egg will hatch into a hen, a potty egg will be a roo. We will be adding to our foock this spring too. Getting ready to start some seeds soon as well. Keep on with it!
Tomato jam is delicious!! My grandmother use to make it, one of favorites!
That store has never changed in all the years shopped there. The Amish Cheese house, when I was in the area was always my lunch stop when I worked for the state of Oklahoma or my rest stop, on the way to OKDHS child support services offices I supported.
By the way Dutch we have plenty of eggs in Krakow Poland. Eggs in Poland cost 10.50 PLN Which is about $2.60 for 10 eggs.
We have been hunkered down in our home in this wintery mix of weather. I see the schools are already canceling for tomorrow. It may be a very short week for the school kids!
There's been suspicious fires on one of our biggest egg&chicken process places! Along with them saying there's a shortage in eggs&egg prices rising from the bird flu.
Yes, it’s strange that every time they say we have a chicken or egg shortage another chicken farm burns down. What a coincidence..
@@sherrya6902 …I agree, it also happened with the food distribution places and there were problems with the meat processing places. Strange thing is the WEF is pushing for us to stop eating meat etc and to eat bugs 🤔who’d have thunk it 🤣
I heard it wasn’t the Avian flu, just the FEAR of the flu that caused the culling of birds!
Sounds like here during the milk "shortage due to supply chain disruption" when dairies were pouring milk down the drain even though store shelves were bare ... a nearby dairy burned down "mysteriously"
your so blessed to have an Amish store convenient to you
Yes, my wife makes it! But she makes it with strawberry or raspberry jello! It's delicious! My son-in-law is deathly allergic to strawberries, so he loves it!
Tomato jam is great. I make it every year. Also fried green tomatoes.
If the Amish are hoarding for their people oh well. That’s their prerogative is all I could say about that but as far as the taste testing with your girls, that was so adorable I love to watch the girls. They remind me of me and my little sister hanging out with my dad doing things like that he would make us try things like sardines, , Fun times with my dad.
My 13 year old granddaughter loves pickled eggs. She’s eat them all her life. I tried one years ago, it just wasn’t my thing. I’ve never heard of tomato jam either. Stay safe during the bad weather & of course everyday. Love from y’all’s friend in McCalla, Alabama! 💖🇺🇸
That was comical tasting the foods with the girls. Seems Hayden has a really sensitive nose. Hope the egg situation starts to improve pretty soon for everyone in US. Love from South Africa.
That store is so neat and clean. No jar is out of place.
Here in Oregon, there isn't an egg shortage. I bought an 18 count carton of eggs, yesterday, at our local Walmart for $2.48 and the case was full.
😮😮 Only one state away but here they charge nearly three times that!
Eggs are 77 cents each in Texas at Walmart!
This Old Lady loves tomato jam my Grandmother made when I was a young child I'm pushing 70 I buy a lot of Amish foods anymore and love everything I get God Bless you ALL
The Amish does a lot of baking pies, cakes, bread, etc so all these need eggs so if they aren’t selling eggs it might be a good reason they are using them
For sure
Stop making stuff up the avian flu had all the chickens slaughtered millions dead no eggs duh... Amish do not hoard food it's against their so called "religion"
Your children obviously never traveled to try new things making faces is RUDE
@@charlenedavia4215 As you stated -
They're children for Pete's sake!
I'm sorry, but I'm 66 yrs old & if I don't like something I've just tasted for the first time - I'm going to make a face!
It's not like they were in someone else's home - they were in their own home!!
You are the rude one for picking on children in their home giving their honest opinion!!!!
@@charlenedavia4215 P.S.
I'm so proud of them for at least trying new things!
Alot of kids would have run the other way!! Give them credit for at least trying not 1 but both foods!!!
So Proud of you girls !!! 👍🤗
Love 🌻 from NC 💜
Love tomato jam. I think it's what you get used to. All the farms back home growing up in farm country........all the ladies made tomato jam with the leftovers or smaller fruit and it was delicious. You should try it on warm home made bread with butter melted on it and then some tomato jam........yummmm love it! Delicious!
I noted some of the other homesteaders were saying they had low times in winter when the hens shut down production and then it picked up after the colder weather let up a bit. I am sure those girls need a rest from laying...LOL I am sure it will pick up again.
Blessings to you all!
Love that the girls did the taste test with you!
Oh yum, I just made Tomato Jam! Grew up with my Mum and Nan making it. Love it. 🍅
If you did not see any snow on the horses backs then you should worry because that means that they are not insulated by winter fur. Your horses are not cold they apparently have enough winter fur to keep them warm.
Hi Dutch and family. Love your videos. Enjoyed going into the Amish market. Never tried tomato jam. Tried everything else. I would definitely give it ago. Love all pickled eggs. The house turned out so nice. Wished I had a place like yours. Used to have a place like that in northern Utah. I live in Las Vegas for long time. You have such a nice family. Eggs are getting expensive here $8 dollars for a dozen. Everything has gone up. Happy Birthday to your Dad Randy Brandi. Look like a good father and Grandfather. Take care you guys. See you on the next. Stay warm. Peace out Brother.
What an interesting and "real" video. Thank you for sharing it. Kids are funny aren't they? My granddaughter won't eat anything we grow because we grow it in "dirt" and "chicken poo". She eats a lot of store bought Yellow pasta and "store bought" tomato sauce. Won't touch home grown. I guess she figures food grows magically somehow in grocery stores. She does eat eggs though, so that's good. She's doesn't know what hunger is or she wouldn't be so picky. She'll learn. In the meantime, keep up the good work and stay dry and warm. Wishing you all the best. From Northern Cana duh.
Love that there is barely any PLASTIC!!!!!! Dream Store!
