Backyard hens have many benefits, including: being a productive use of available land, bringing your food source as local as possible, reducing your family's dependence on industrial agriculture, reducing the need for energy-intensive industrial agriculture, controlling the quality and source of your food, reintegrating with nature, reconnecting children with their food sources, encouraging permaculture, and community resilience to the fluctuation and instability of food prices.
Allowing backyard hens is a step in the right direction; it is sustainable, progressive and allows us to participate in a positive way in an every changing world.
Cities nearby that currently support backyard hens: Guelph, Brampton, London, Brantford, Quinte West, and Niagara Falls.
Other Canadian cities supporting backyard hens: Surrey, Victoria, Montreal, Vancouver, and Whitehorse.
Let's build a better community and support backyard hens!
*Please forward to any family or friends who would be interested in supporting this cause.

My kids would love to learn about where eggs come from and help out in the yard. Really hoping the town council says yes to this.
