Rent The Chicken was founded by Phil and Jenn Tompkins of Freeport Pennsylvania in 2013.  Their objective is to help people have just one food source closer to their table.  We call this concept “Yard to Table”.  Each location is a family run affiliate helping families to bring one simple food source closer to their table one rental at a time. Rent The Chicken provides two to four egg laying hens, a coop, food dish, water dish, and food for a five-six month rental.  Also provided is a copy of the book Fresh Eggs Daily by Lisa Steele (USA) or Happy Hens Fresh Eggs by Signe Langford (Canada).  At any time, the customer can adopt the chickens or chicken out and return the chickens back to the homestead.
