2021 Poultry Policy

Due to recent unprecedented demand for our livestock, we have implemented new policies at Eastside Urban Farm & Garden. Our staff are essential agricultural workers and our policies are designed to insure both their, and our customer’s health by limiting the number of individuals on site at any one time.

We encourage customers to do research to understand fully what’s involved in rearing poultry before coming in to make a livestock purchase.

In order to ensure the safety of staff and customers on site we are implementing the following safety procedures on chick arrival days:

• Our doors open at 10am. If chicks arrive on time (8am) we will be able to start releasing them at 11am.

• We have an online sign-up schedule system to pick up new chicks, while maintaining occupancy limits in the store. Sign up starts the day before arrival each week. Usually that will be Thursdays at 10am.

• Please do not come into the store for your livestock until your scheduled time.

Sales will begin at no earlier than 11 am to try to ensure the health of the livestock. All livestock sales are final.

**Effective 9/23 – February 2022 we will be suspending our appointment booking. All chicks will be available on a first come, first serve basis. **

Please be aware that starting in February 2022 we will continue with our policy of having to make an appointment, through our website, starting at 10am on Thursday in order to come in the next day (Friday) for the new chicks that come in – any other day of the week will be first come, first serve.

There’s nothing quite like the peace of mind you get by raising your own livestock. Knowing exactly where your food is coming from, you can ensure that your family is getting the best quality, healthiest meat and eggs, from animals that are well cared for, and fed high quality feeds. We sell poultry all year. In addition, we also offer a variety of all types of livestock supplies to help make raising your animals easier.
