Chickens are becoming increasingly popular, much like veganism and kombucha, which were once considered strange but are now more accepted and popular thanks to logos, brands, and hashtags.
Gina Warren's in-depth exploration of the backyard chicken movement delves into its history, food politics, and social and cultural motivations. She offers a personal account of the movement's challenges, regulations, and the ways chicken owners build community. Warren's interviews with urban agriculture advocates, entrepreneurs, animal rights campaigners, and a diverse group of chicken enthusiasts shed light on Americans' complex relationship with animals, as guardians, companions, and eaters.
Through her own experiences raising chickens, Warren explores sustainable eating practices, such as cooking insects and dumpster diving, as she pursues what's best for her flock. The result is a captivating and thought-provoking story that appeals to backyard chicken owners while raising important questions about sustainable farming, industrial agriculture, and our connections with the animals we love.
