The month of March had the fastest inflation surge since the pandemic. Increased food prices were a large contributor, specifically with eggs.
Cathy Lolwing works on a farm with 700 chickens. This farm is a non-profit. Employees rely on donations and tax credits to provide food for those in need.
She says almost every aspect of raising chickens has gotten more expensive this year, and those costs carry over to the chickens’ eggs. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that retail egg prices rose almost 2% in March. Cisek says despite increased costs, his market and other retailers in Tucson are keeping egg prices stable.
