Explore St. Ewe's Free Range Eggs

Not all free-range eggs are created equal. At St. Ewe, we've spent over 40 years proving it.

Born from a Cornish farming family and built on a deep conviction that well-cared-for hens make extraordinary eggs, our range has grown from a single packing line in 1982 to become the choice of Michelin-starred restaurants and foodie households across the UK.

Every egg in our range is free-range - laid by hens with genuine space to roam, forage, and live well. But we don't stop there. From our everyday Originals to our Rich Yolk® eggs, each variety is crafted with a specific purpose in mind: to perform beautifully, taste extraordinary, and make the cook look good.

St. Ewe Rich Yolk eggs are amazing to use in the kitchen because of the incredible vibrancy in the colour of the yolks, giving that natural, amazing golden hue when used - and they are delicious!

FAQs ABOUT FREE-RANGE EGGS

Most free-range eggs meet a basic legal standard - outdoor access and a defined stocking density. St. Ewe goes further on every measure: RSPCA Assured welfare, carefully formulated feed programmes that affect the nutritional profile and flavour of the egg, independent quality auditing through the British Lion Code, and B Corp certification that holds us accountable on social and environmental performance.

In the UK, hens must have continuous access to an outdoor range during daylight hours to qualify as free range. The maximum indoor stocking density is 9 hens per square metre. At St. Ewe, we work exclusively with British family farms that meet and exceed these requirements - with RSPCA Assured welfare standards covering everything from housing design to daily management.

The British Lion mark (the Red Lion Code) is the UK's most trusted egg quality mark. It guarantees that eggs are laid by hens vaccinated against Salmonella, produced to strict hygiene standards, and independently audited throughout the supply chain. All St. Ewe eggs carry the Lion mark.

Rich Yolk® eggs are produced by hens fed a specific diet that includes marigold petals and nature-identical paprika extract, creating yolks with the richest orange colour on the Roche scale. This golden colour is stable through cooking, baking, and reheating - meaning the pasta, patisserie, or sauce you plate will look as vibrant as it did in development. The whites are also notably firm and clear, with a strong protein structure ideal for whipping, meringues, and soufflés.

Yes - and we've built our catering range specifically with professional kitchens in mind. Our eggs are available in catering boxes of 5, 15, and 30 dozen.. Our packaging, sizing consistency, freshness, and quality certifications are all designed for the demands of professional foodservice. We also partner with premium distributors including Classic Fine Foods for fine dining accounts.

St. Ewe is based at Resparveth Farm, Grampound Road, Cornwall - in the heart of the Westcountry. We work with a trusted network of British family farmers, primarily in the South West and Wales, who share our values of welfare, quality, and transparency. All our free-range eggs are packed at our Cornwall facility.

B Corp is an independent global certification awarded to businesses that meet verified standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. St. Ewe became the first UK-founded egg packer to achieve B Corp certification in Europe, with a score of 84.0 - well above the 50.9 median for ordinary businesses.

Yes. Every product in our range is produced with a feed programme tailored to the variety. Our Rich Yolk® hens receive a diet to achieve the characteristic deep-orange yolk colour. Our Super Eggs come from hens fed to produce higher levels of Selenium and Omega-3. All our hens receive a nutritious, carefully balanced diet that complements their free-range lifestyle.
