We will hide a minimum of 20 Easter Eggs at your home ($1/egg). You tell us how many eggs and where to hide them (front yard/back yard). We will hide them on Saturday before Easter.

There is a gluten-free option. And if you would like to donate some eggs to a family in need please indicate this on your order form. You may order a basket of Easter eggs to be delivered to your doorstep instead. Order TODAY!
