Join the Movement to Bring Backyard Hens to Manassas City!

We're working with the City of Manassas to propose legislation that would allow single-family homeowners to responsibly keep female chickens (hens) in their backyards. This is a growing, successful movement already embraced by neighboring communities like Fairfax and Leesburg—and now it's time for Manassas City to join in.

Backyard hens provide fresh eggs, natural pest control, and an educational opportunity for families—all while promoting sustainable living. Our proposal includes sensible regulations: limits on the number of hens, no roosters, minimum yard size requirements, and other guidelines to ensure harmony in our neighborhoods.

Help us show the Mayor and City Council that Manassas City supports the right to have chickens.

Please sign the petition today and be part of the movement!
