Sparboe Farms Partners With Fareway Stores To Fill The Truck! (News Release)

Sparboe Farms is honored to partner with Fareway Stores on a donation initiative providing eggs to families in need.

Beginning on January 8, 2013, with any size carton of Sparboe Farms eggs purchased at any Fareway store, Sparboe Farms will donate eggs through the Iowa Food Bank Association, which
supports many of the communities where Fareway has stores. The goal is to fill an entire semi-truck with eggs – that is nearly 20,000 dozen eggs!

Many local families are unable to feed their families fresh food, especially in the winter months. Fresh eggs are the perfect protein, providing healthy nutrition and, with a low glycemic index, they help you feel fuller longer.
