The Portable Chicken Coop Kit
Raising chickens is often considered a farmer’s job, but a new trend sweeping North America has seen chicken coops and small flocks of chickens appearing in more common places.
Economists point to people taking their future into their own hands. But increases in the cost of food may only be a small factor. Nutritionists count higher levels of nutrients in home raised eggs, free from chemicals and factory farming conditions and suggest people no longer trust corporations to provide their daily food.
Designing chicken coops specifically for the backyard and urban farmer, Handcrafted Coops provides affordable and space efficient homes for backyard chickens.
“Online interest and sales of our coop kits has increased exponentially in the past 12 months,” says Drew Waters, the principal designer of Handcrafted Coops. “People are bringing their food production back home.”
