Welcome to Urban Chicken Coops

Urban Chicken Coops, founded in December 2015 by Louise Arbour, with the French legal name: Poules en Ville. Our first mission is to promote self-sufficiency by educating the population of Canada to the safe pleasures of keeping backyard chickens in urban areas. Urban Chicken Coops (Poules en Ville) works on several dimensions through training, conferences, webinars, a book on the subject, while providing products and services related to urban chickens and coops construction.
Urban Chicken Coops supports and accompanies citizens, cities and organizations in order to promote all aspects of laying hen care in urban areas in a safe and responsible manner. Another important mission of Urban Chicken Coops is to assist, accompany and support citizens on a voluntary basis in legalizing and supervising the keeping of chickens in their cities. In this regard, it has set up numerous Facebook groups to facilitate citizen collaboration. Chickens are part of the mosaic of sustainable development and promotes the return to a better management of our food independence, our nutrition at home and locally.
