Rockwood, Ontario - Homestead Berty serves the GTA and South-Central Ontario! With Homestead Berty growing up in Amsterdam, she never had been up close to a chicken until way into her 30s! One day, her daughter was given chicks and since then they were hooked. In her opinion, chickens are the funniest and most therapeutic animals on this planet! Just sit with or watch a chicken and all will be calm! On top of that, they provide the most delicious eggs every day! Homestead Berty is so happy that she has the opportunity to share all of this with other people through our Hatch The Chicken program. She is looking forward to meeting you!
