Farmers Hen House is a small food and beverage services company based in Kalona, Iowa, that sources organic, free-range, and pasture-raised eggs from small family farms. Its products target customers who value humane animal treatment, sustainability, and support for the small family farm. Founded in 1997, the company was created to provide local Amish and Mennonite farmers with a sustainable channel to bring their organic eggs into retail spaces. Historically, it has worked to help these family farms flourish and connect to broader markets, preserving intergenerational farming legacies. In January 2025, Farmers Hen House was acquired by Pete & Gerry's Organics, LLC, integrating the operation into the Pete & Gerry's family of brands. The company remains part of the ethical egg sourcing ecosystem within the food and beverage services sector, emphasizing humane farming practices and connections between small family farms and consumers.
