If you've been wondering about egg prices and whats been going on, this covers it pretty well. To friends of Shevington Farm, thank you for your support. We value and appreciate every one of our loyal customers.

Eggs were once a cheap and cheerful way to fill your supermarket trolley, but prices have skyrocketed - up more than eleven percent on a year ago. For egg producers it's been a perfect storm of challenges. Not only has the cost of feed increased due to the war in Ukraine, but many have shelled out h...

As the latest restrictions again interrupt normal business, we hope for the best outcome.

The front gate is currently closed at Shevington Farm as part of our risk management strategy - so there can be no shop sales or farm visits until further notice.

We will however continue to offer fortnightly egg deliveries throughout any COVID restrictions. As an approved essential service we operate in accordance with the Government stipulated COVID Safety protocols to bring you a contact-free service.

All orders and payments can be submitted at Shevingtonfarm.co.nz. This gives you an invoice quickly, and streamlines payment. Do feel free to phone us to chat or offer feedback.

Best wishes

Poultry farms responsible for 80 percent of the country’s egg production are being tested for salmonella enteritidis.

There’s developing evidence of a link between poultry products and recent cases of salmonella enteritidis in humans, New Zealand Food Safety said.

So far this year, there have been 47 reported cases of the illness. Symptoms include abdominal cramps, diarrhoea, fever, headache, nausea and vomiting.

Testing of poultry operations began earlier this year after the bacteria was found at an Auckland poultry farm.

Restrictions have been placed on three North Island egg-laying operations to prevent infected eggs reaching consumers.

The testing programme has now been extended to 20 egg-laying facilities and five chick rearers. Testing is expected to take two months.

New Zealand Food Safety said efforts had focussed on egg producers rather than meat “as farms have existing measures to protect against salmonella and cooking chicken meat kills the bacterium”.

To reduce the risk of illness, it’s advising consumers to:

Keep eggs in the fridge, and cook them until the white is firm and yolk is starting to thicken.

Avoid raw or undercooked egg products, especially if you’re preparing food for children under two, pregnant women, elderly people or anyone with a compromised immune system.

Wash your hands after touching eggs, eat them before the date on the carton and only use clean, uncracked eggs that are free from dirt and faecal matter.
We are pleased to be able to report that Shevington Farm has been tested several times with clear test results and are advised by MPI that no further testing is required at our farm.

A special thanks to all those lovely city folk who supported us last week at the Harbourside Market. There's a high degree of uncertainty at this time, and to minimise risk, It's a much smaller market during Alert Level 2, but with appropriate safety measures in place. We will have eftpos available as usual and would love to see you there every Sunday. Please use the QR scanner at our stall in line with Government guidelines. See you there! Kath
