DIY décor and lifestyle expert Andrea Ford shares tips for Easter egg decorating and delicious recipes

TORONTO, April 14, 2014 /CNW/ - Easter is just around the corner and with it comes talk of Easter egg decorating and delicious recipes. To celebrate Canada's high-quality, local and fresh eggs, Egg Farmers of Canada (EFC) is partnering with leading DIY décor and lifestyle expert, Andrea Ford of Re:Style, to provide tips to create an Easter experience that's fun and informative for the whole family.

"Easter is the perfect time to celebrate fresh Canadian eggs and get the whole family involved in fun decorating and cooking activities," said Andrea Ford. "Eggs are important every day of the year, but especially at Easter. Canadian eggs are at the heart of many families' celebrations and are used for decorating and in many delicious Easter recipes."

Eggs in Canada come from just over 1,000 family farms in all parts of the country and many farms have been in the family for generations. Moreover, egg farmers help keep communities vibrant by contributing to the economic and social fabric of Canada. Canadians can support them by choosing Canada Grade A eggs every day.

"What better time to celebrate Canadian eggs than at Easter," said Peter Clarke, Chair of EFC. "The local, fresh and high-quality eggs sold in Canada are not only perfect for decorating, but contain all the natural goodness to keep the family happy and healthy."
