Burnbrae Farms is a Canadian company, proudly owned and operated by the Hudson family since 1891.  It all began when Joseph and Jean Hudson purchased a 100-acre mixed dairy farm in a small village of Lyn, just outside of Brockville.  Hens were introduced in 1943 and became the exclusive focus on the farm in the mid-60s.  Since then, Burnbrae Farms continued to grow and the Company now has grading facilities in 5 provinces, working in partnership with local egg farmers.  Our eggs and egg products can be found in your local grocery store, restaurants, food-service operations and homes across Canada.

Burnbrae Farms is also proud to be the recipient of the ‘ Innovation and Originality ’ Award at the Retail Council of Canada’s 27 th annual Canadian Grand Prix New Products Award.  This is the 14 th Grand Prix Award that Burnbrae Farms has received for our new products.  Past recognition includes awards for our Omega-3 eggs in 1996, Free Run eggs in 1998, and Organic eggs in 2000. Other innovations include Naturegg Simply Egg Whites commonly used for baking, EGG Bakes! crustless quiche which provide a nutritious and convenient way to start your day, EGG Creations! which are a low cholesterol alternative to large eggs, and EGGS2go!
