Hickman’s Family Farms of Buckeye is donating 54,000 eggs to St. Mary’s Food Bank in Phoenix in time for Easter.

Their donation will be distributed to local residents 8-10 a.m. Thursday, April 6, at the Knight Client Services Center on 3131 W. Thomas Road, Phoenix.

Hickman’s Family Farms’ donation of 54,000 eggs will provide local residents with thousands of meals. In total, more than 458,300 dozen eggs will be donated by egg farmers across the country this spring.

“Arizona’s egg farmers are passionate about being good stewards and neighbors, which includes lending a helping hand, producing safe food, caring for our animals and protecting the environment for future generations,” said Sharman Hickman of Hickman’s Family Farms. “Sharing eggs is especially important because we know that protein has great value to those who are hungry and to the hunger relief organizations who serve them.”
