Our Story

Founded in 1925, Rosemary Farm is one of the oldest egg producers in California. We produce and distribute eggs, meaning that we have a deep understanding of the farms from which we're sourcing and can ensure the quality of every egg that bears our brand. We're proud of our name and our history, but that doesn't stop us from adapting to new technologies and higher standards. We carry on a history of quality and innovation, and we're mindful of that legacy every day.
