GSIESA GOGGILAN – ORGANIC EGGS FROM THE VAL CASIES VALLEY. Our organic chickens live in mobile stable right in the middle of our meadows, which means they get fresh grass, air, and sunlight. In our SELF SERVICE farm shop, you can find fresh organic eggs and organic egg noodles from our farm’s own "Gsiesa Goggilan" (eggs from the Val Casies Valley) around the clock. Additionally, we offer Kaminwurzen, bacon, soup chicken, and roasting chickens.
Why do organic eggs cost more than regular free-range eggs? The work involved with a mobile stable is bigger because it is moved to a new spot in our meadows about every two weeks, and additional feed and water need to be brought to the stable.
One egg equals another. Or not? In addition to the higher costs for purchasing and raising organic chickens and the larger space requirements per animal, as stipulated by organic farming guidelines, it is primarily the cost of feed that adds up. Organic grains and legumes are much more expensive than conventionally grown products.
Our hens are fed exclusively certified, GMO-free organic feed. Thanks to their excellent diet, fresh grass, and the ample space to roam in our meadows and fields, our organic meadow eggs simply taste better and contain especially high levels of vitamins (A, D, E), healthy omega-3 fatty acids, and carotenoids. Furthermore, we raise dual-purpose chickens that belong to the “Bruderhahn” initiative. "Dual-purpose" refers to both eggs and meat, meaning that the meat of our organic chickens is used as soup chicken after their active time during whom they lay eggs. In the “Bruderhahn initiative”, male chickens are also raised.
