    Paddy Byrne's stall at the Skerries Mills Market every Saturday.

    Jenny McNally's stall in temple bar food market - she sells her own organic eggs as well as dairy goods and beautiful vegetables.

    Don't forget that organic eggs aren't as in plentiful supply in the winter because the hens aren't laying. With battery hens its easier to control things like day length and temperature to get a year round supply.

    The Corn Fed Irish free range eggs in Lidl, Tesco and Dunnes (perhaps others) are extremely good. They are between 1.79 to 1.99 per six pack.

    I buy my eggs in Lilliput Stores in Arbour Hill.

    I think they come from a Wicklow farm. They're the best ones I've found in Dublin.
