BEST WAY TO GET EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE? CHECK YOUR EMAIL OR ETSY CONVERSATIONS AFTER YOU PLACE YOUR ORDER. I always send a proof for the customer's approval. I can't do any printing until you approve it.
Let’s have some fun! Do you have a favorite farm joke? Tell it to me in the seller notes and I’ll put it on this label. Add a pic of your favorite hen or family member at no charge. Just include in seller notes. Then I just need your farm or flock name and you’re all set. You also receive a label for the front panel and side panel with each top label for a professional look. You will receive ACTUAL LABELS--not a digital file.
Regarding "How Managed?"
Free Range generally means: Birds are free to roam, nest and perch in a protected coop with access to the outdoors. Birds are never in cages (except for broody breaking and recovering from illness/injury). Birds may be allowed outside the coop, but this isn't everyday and is usually supervised.*
Pasture Raised generally means: Birds are free roam outside the coop at least 6 hours per day. Their foraging area is grassy and birds get at least a part of their nutrition from foraging. There are no more than 100 birds per 1/4 acre (108 sf per bird). Birds may be brought in at night for safety. It is understood that birds may not go outside when the weather threatens their safety.*
INCLUDE IN YOUR NOTES TO SELLER:
-Your farm name or flock name. This goes on the big label on top.
-What you would like on your side/info label (1" x 2 5/8"). Customers sometimes choose, "Please Return Clean Cartons," "laid on" with lines for writing, their contact information, bacteria warnings, etc. Please tell us exactly what you would like to see.
Why choose us? While some shops offer a standard label size that one might find at Office Depot or Amazon, our label stock was commissioned specifically for egg cartons (2.75" x 10" vs 8" labels found in other shops) and have rounded corners, which reduces lifting. Our products are completely full color, with no "white space margin" unless it is part of the design. We use commercial printers to provide you with the best quality product possible.
*These terms parallel the egg industry and may not reflect the way farmers typically understand their meaning. We encourage cruelty free practices. Our shop does not service farms that are only "cage free," and certainly not any caged or "battery" birds. Buyer also warrants that they do not use industry practices such as beak cutting or starvation to force molting.
