Thomas Farms
is in Twentynine Palms and owned by Roger Thomas of 29 Palms. Roger provides a natural setting for his avian “ladies.” His Rhode Island Red Cross hens can come and go outside 24/7, eat sunflower sprouts and mealworms and “play” in an enriched environment with mazes, hoops and toys.
He sells all their eggs at farmers’ markets within 24 hours of being harvested, ensuring peak nutritional value. The upshot – if you want to know the true value of an egg, ask the farmer who raised it.
Thomas Farms is the leading force for the Farmer's Market at the 18th Annual Car Show & Street Fair.
Thank you, Thomas Farms
, for supporting your local Twentynine Palms Chamber of Commerce. We look forward to serving you and we can't wait to go to the Farmer's Market at the Car Show!
