Small Lot Permit Programs

British Columbia residents can apply to grow up to 2,000 chickens per year for farm direct marketing. The permit administration fee is $20 and permit holders must report their placement and slaughter records.

Note: In BC, all meat offered for sale must be processed at a provincially or federally inspected and approved facility.

Permit growers (less than 2,000 birds/year) must apply for a permit every year and submit their placement and slaughter records. Find the forms below:
