G&E Ranch
Farm Fresh Everyday
Whole american guinnea hogs
We raise our hogs to graze our
pastures freely with our steers,
lambs, and other farm animals.
cornish x chickens
Our chickens graze the fresh green pasture grass every spring.
They are butchered on-site and sold fresh each summer.
Chicken Eggs
Our chickens are small flock and get lost in tall pasture grass all day with continuous water.
1/2, 1/4, whole Beef
Our steers roam through rotational pasture grass. Happy cows are better cows (only available every 2 years).
Whole Lamb
Our ewes and ram live and love.
They add to our herd.
(baby lambs in limited quantity)
Duck Eggs
Our ducks roam with our chickens through grass taller than they are. They get continuous fresh water to drink and a clean bathtub to play in. Their eggs are 1.5 times that of our chicken eggs, are slightly richer and are AMAZING!
Broad Breasted Turkeys
We raise a specific amount of turkeys every year on pasture. The early birds are typically ready in late summer and early fall. These whole birds are wonderful for stocking up for the year. Breasts of turkey, ground turkey, or cooking a whole turkey for special occasions. Our later birds are butchered the weekend before Thanksgiving and sold as never-frozen, whole turkeys, butchered on-the-farm.
farm to table freshness
You can count on us to always provide farm fresh products. Our garden is small but abundant and well managed. Our fruit orchard is maturing and producing apples, plums, and pears. We change our products annually, but always have the basics available- squashes, cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, cilantro, parsley, beats, peas, beans, and more!
We can also specify to your needs.
Our garden plants love our animal manure recycling program.
We Deliver
Our day job is in Portland. Convenient delivery/pickup can be arranged.
Eco Friendly
We recycle and reuse almost everything. Our farm is designed to be as sustainable as possible.
Almost Always Fresh
Whenever possible, we provide fresh eggs, meat, and garden produce. When not possible, we sell frozen and canned farm foods as allowed by USDA and ODA.
The difference between eggs
Do you know the difference between duck and chicken eggs?
Though chicken eggs are the more commonly used, duck eggs are catching on as effective alternatives. Below we outline some of the key differences between the two, taking out the mystique from these amazing eggs.
Size
Ducks eggs are quite large compared to chicken eggs, which makes them easily distinguishable. Another difference is that the duck egg’s shell is a lot tougher than a normal chicken egg’s shell. Though that makes them a lot more difficult to crack, it provides them with a considerably longer shelf life. By keeping the eggs refrigerated you may enjoy them for up to 6 weeks, although we highly recommend fresh eggs.
The large size of the duck egg gives it a larger yolk-to-white ratio than to a chicken egg. If yolk is what you are looking for, duck eggs are for you. With the larger size, you definitely get more for your money compared to a chicken egg.
Nutrition
A 100 gram portion of a duck egg is about 185 calories, compared to 149 calories for a chicken egg. Carbohydrate content is similar in both eggs.
While both eggs are similar in mineral, vitamin, and protein content, the true winner is the duck egg, coming out higher in all areas.
The saturated fat content is very similar as well, but duck egg yield approximately 50% more monounsaturated fat content. Duck eggs also tend higher in cholesterol (884mg versus 425mg for chicken eggs), so we encourage our patrons with a history of heart disease to moderate their intake, or simply enjoy the protein laden whites.
All-in-all duck eggs are a great choice nutritionally!
Taste and Utility
Ducks eggs provide a taste that is different, but some consider tastier, than a chicken egg. Individual tastes certainly vary, so it is best to give them a try!
Everything you customarily do with a chicken egg can be done with a duck egg- scrambling, poaching, and baking! In fact, most expert bakers report that using duck eggs makes their cakes rise higher and provides them with excellent taste due to their high fat content.
As the water content is less in duck eggs, you need to take care to not overcook them and they may give you a workout when you whip them, but they are well worth the extra time and effort.
Duck egg recipes are easy to find. Why not try the popular Chinese delicacy of salted duck eggs for a maiden voyage into this amazing alternative.
