HENS FOR BROOKFIELD!!!



The Board of the Village of Brookfield voted last night to allow 3 hens per residence/lot/address. If you have a duplex or a double lot, it's still only 3 total allowed for the address. Additionally, no composting of chicken manure may take place. 

With all the love in the world, thank you to everyone who supported this ordinance. Let's continue to show the community all the positives that come from living in a chicken-friendly community. Do right by your hens and neighbors, keep a coop that you'd be proud to show off.

THANK YOU!! Pat yourselves on the back. Everyone did a great job.


POWER TO THE POULTRY! ;)


I look forward to a late spring Tour de Coop and hen club showings...all sorts of fun stuff!

  2. Do you have a link to the actual text of the updated ordinance? The Village website still claims that the codes will be available in the first half of 2009....

    My parents still live in town and I wanted to help them figure out the details on this.
