Rent-A-Chicken

Rentals are limited to within a 10 mile radius of Land's Sake Farm, 90 Wellesley St. Weston, MA.

Curious about chickens? With the Land's Sake Rent-a-Chicken program you can see for yourself how easy it is to raise these friendly birds, eat fresh eggs and give your kids a fun, educational experience.  Renting Land's Sake's chickens for two weeks is the ideal way to provide your family an educational farm experience in your own yard. Many have tried it and have enjoyed fresh eggs daily, natural lawn care courtesy of our chickens, and the entertaining antics of our feathered friends.

The program:
Chicken rentals are typically for a two-week period. We deliver the chickens and everything you need to keep them healthy and happy including:

  • One chicken tractor (portable coop)
  • Two chickens
  • Organic feed
  • Bedding
  • Water and Feed trays
  • Instructions for chicken care

In exchange you receive fresh eggs daily, free lawn and garden work from our chickens and educational fun for your family and friends.

The fee is $100.

The benefits of chickens in your yard:

  • Fresh eggs: On average, our chickens lay one egg a day.
  • A healthy lawn: A chicken is happiest when it can scratch and eat bugs or grass. Naturally chickens will aerate your lawn and mix it beneficial fertilizer.
  • Fun for the Whole Family
