Ontario Egg Program

Proper nutrition is essential to the health of all Ontarians. Ontario eggs are affordable, healthy, and easy to prepare – making them a staple item in all refrigerators. This program ensures all Ontarians are gaining access to healthy, locally produced eggs in partnership with the Egg Farmers of Ontario.
