At the end of 2016, the Town of Crossfield said it would start a pilot program for raising hens in the community.

The Urban Hen Pilot Program officially launched on January 31st, but according to the Town, there's been very little interest so far.

With the project still in the beginning stages, you can expect interest to grow as the weather warms up.

The project will run until January 31st, 2018.
