LushAcres Farm Market Offers Egg Special to Help Customers Prepare for Possible Winter Storm

Washed vs. unwashed eggs explained as families plan for potential power outages

As the Upstate of South Carolina prepares for a possible winter storm that could bring icy conditions and power outages, LushAcres Farm Market is offering a practical way for customers to prepare with a household staple.

For a limited time, LushAcres Farm Market is offering farm-fresh eggs for $3 per dozen, with the special available through January 23. The promotion is intended to help families stock up ahead of the weather while also educating customers on an important option that can make a difference during a power outage.

Washed vs. Unwashed Eggs: Why It Matters During Power Outages

During winter weather events, especially those that may lead to extended power outages, egg storage becomes an important consideration.

Unwashed eggs retain their natural protective coating, known as the bloom. This coating seals the pores of the eggshell and helps prevent bacteria from entering. Because of this natural barrier, unwashed eggs can safely be stored at room temperature for several weeks, making them a reliable option if refrigeration is unavailable.

Washed eggs are also available for customers who prefer them; however, once washed, eggs must remain refrigerated to stay safe for consumption.

By offering both options, LushAcres Farm Market aims to help customers make informed choices based on their household needs and storm preparedness plans.

The market encourages customers to stop by soon to take advantage of the special pricing, prepare ahead of the weather, and stay safe and warm. LushAcres Farm Market also expressed appreciation for the continued support from the community.
