Easter egg hunts begin at 11 a.m. and run every 30 minutes by age group

KANSAS CITY, Mo., March 22, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Bring the whole family out for delicious brunch during Easter weekend and enjoy a free easter egg hunt on Saturday, March 30, at Chicken N Pickle, the original indoor/outdoor "eatertainment" complex with a chef-driven menu, pickleball courts and yard games with locations around the country. The second annual Easter Celebration is open to the public and made possible by Vital Farms (Nasdaq: VITL), Chicken N Pickle's egg-clusive yolk provider since 2022.

"Chicken N Pickle sources the best ethically produced ingredients for our kitchens – that's why we use Vital Farms eggs at all ten of our locations. They're delicious, they cook well and Vital Farms sources them from family farms. We're excited to team up with Vital Farms to host egg hunts over Easter weekend and continue the commitment both of our organizations have to supporting local communities," said Chicken N Pickle President Kelli Alldredge.

Chicken N Pickle opens at 11 a.m., kicking off with brunch featuring Vital Farms' sunny yolks and egg hunts for kids in three different groups:

• 11 to 11:15 a.m. – 1 to 4 years
• 11:30 to 11:40 a.m. – 5 to 7 years
• 11:55 a.m. to 12:05 p.m. 8 to 10 years

Children will search for thousands of candy-filled eggs hidden throughout Chicken N Pickle's main level and game yard area. Kids who find a special "golden egg" may exchange it for a fun toy. No registration or reservations are required to participate, and children without baskets will be provided a bag to hold eggs.

Chicken N Pickle will serve up other "eggs-ellent" Easter activities on March 30, including:

• Open play with the Easter Bunny from noon-2 p.m. on a designated pickleball court
• Kids' activities and crafts in the game yard (e.g., a Velcro ball toss, face painting, an egg-and-spoon race, and bubbles)
• Kid-friendly prizes like stickers and stuffed animals
• Brunch & mimosa bar available for purchase featuring festive offerings that include Deviled Eggs Two Ways, Chilaquiles with Fried Eggs, and Spinach & Red Pepper Frittatas, all prepared with Vital Farms pasture-raised eggs (This special menu will be available on Easter Sunday, March 31 as well.)

An invitation-only Egg Hunt is scheduled from 10-10:30 a.m. for children with special needs. Chicken N Pickle is coordinating this activity with local non-profits at each of their locations.
