Fountain Grove, Santa Rosa, ca

[Julie M]

Hi. My name is Julie. My family and I recently moved to Santa Rosa CA. We are very interested in raising our own laying chickens. Good news is Santa Rosa recently legalized raising chickens within the city limits. Bad news is we just read this week that our HOA, Fountaingrove, does not allow them. Does anyone have any info on this?

This seems like the same sad type of story many people are encountering. Generally HOA's don't permit anything.

I was hoping maybe someone on your site would be from around here and could prove me wrong!

Greetings from Kansas, Julie M, and

! Great to have you in our flock! Sorry your local HOA doesn't allow chickens. You might try posting in one or both of the following links to see if there is a way to change those laws.
