I was interested to learn about the experimental urban chicken “farm” recently approved by the city of Moncton (if you call keeping four hens in a pen a farm.)
Good for Moncton. Post Carbon Greater Moncton is trying to bring awareness to our dependence on fossil fuels and increase food self-sufficiency. The pilot project will run for year and will include an educational component.
The Globe and Mail recently ran a story: City residents illegally keep chickens about would be urban farmers in many Canadian cities having trouble convincing their municipalities and neighbours of the benefits of urban chicken farms. Halifax residents were among those interested in a similar project but were unsuccessful in their bid to keep city-chickens. What can I say except, keep on cluckin'.
