Our Derwent Valley Free Range Eggs are available to order online and in store at Tesco.com Our family has been producing eggs in the North East for four generations and have lived at Lintz Hall Farm for over fifty years.

Set in the heart of Derwent Valley, Lintz Hall is a mixed farm where free range hens share their fields with sheep, cattle and horses.

All our Free Range Hens roam freely and are monitored by the RSPCA. Their eggs are produced to the exacting standards of the British Lion Code.

We take great pride in our farm and the products we supply, which is why we do the whole job from start to finish. We even rear our own chicks!

Within hours of being laid, our eggs are graded and packed in our on site packing centre and delivered direct from the farm.
