“Egg prices being a bit higher than normal, a little bit more hard to find eggs in the grocery store,” John Young with Young’s Jersey Dairy said.
So, the business made the switch to plastic eggs — 10,000 of them.
Young is planning to donate the money they saved.
“We’re donating the cost of the difference in plastic eggs and hardboiled eggs to two food banks, Second Harvest in Springfield and the Food Bank Dayton,” he said.
The egg hunt will take place on April 20th, 2025 at 2:00pm.
