When health takes top priority, there's no better place in Monroe County, WI, to stock up on organic and local groceries than Cranberry Country Market. Shop for fresh vegetables and fruits, deli meats, and dairy, all proudly grown by local farmers. 

Eggs are a go-to on many grocery lists, but not all eggs are created equal. If a chicken was fed only an organic, vegetarian diet, the eggs it produces are considered organic. Higher quality food for the chickens results in higher quality and healthier eggs. A local grocery store like Cranberry Country Market is one of few places families will find fresh, local, and organic eggs to meet their nutritional needs.

Here's why families should shop for local, organic eggs at Cranberry Country Market:

• Health: When it comes to your health, there's no competition between commercial eggs and their organic counterparts. The bevy of health benefits includes:
  
  • Free of antibiotics, pesticides, and added hormones.
  • Significantly less cholesterol and fat.
  • More vitamin A.
  • Up to three times more vitamin E.
  • Up to seven times more beta carotene.

• Environmental Benefits: Keep in mind that organic groceries are not just positive for your diet, but they're great for the environment, too. Animals raised with organic diets tend to be healthier, and progressive farms that cater to an organic market usually trend toward free-range or cage-free conditions. Additionally, these farms don't use any pesticides, which has a positive effect on the natural eco-system. Bees in particular are especially susceptible to pesticides.
