In Season: eggs

Fresh eggs are available year round at local farm stands. But they're also a sign of spring and new life, and important symbols for holidays like Passover and Easter.   

Amelia Tarpey is a Program and Publicity Manger for GrowNYC Greenmarkets. She said you can find pullet eggs, which are the first eggs laid by young hens, as well as quail and even turkey eggs at the markets. Right now at local farmstands, eggs are going for roughly $6 to $12 per dozen.
