Burnbrae Farms

On March 23, 1891 Joe Hudson signed the deed to a 100-acre farm he purchased in the village of Lyn, Ontario. He called it Burnbrae; 'burn' being the Scottish name for a stream and 'brae' the name for a hillside. A little over 50 years later, his grandsons Joe and Grant introduced egg-laying hens to the dairy farm by purchasing 50 baby chicks for a school project, setting in motion a legacy that continues to flourish. Today, Burnbrae Farms has been proudly suppling eggs and egg products to Canadians for over 80 years.
