Fruit of the Coop

Fruit of the Coop is a 7-acre farm situated near the Big Sioux River just outside of Brandon, South Dakota. Known for selling eggs from their own flock of heritage chickens, they also source eggs from other small flocks within the Sioux Empire. Their mission includes bringing local food to Sioux Falls area establishments and revitalizing small and mid-level agriculture in rural economies and communities.

All chickens are pasture-raised on natural grains and forage, resulting in eggs with deep golden yolks and strong shells. The farm emphasizes the importance of local food systems and sustainable agricultural practices that support rural communities.

The farm offers a variety of services including chicken classes, seasonal events, and opportunities for CSA or farm stand owners to diversify their offerings. They also provide resources on the health benefits of pastured eggs and encourage local restaurants to incorporate their high-quality eggs into their menus.
