Entry henhouse · 4–5 hens
Nest
A compact, elevated henhouse for a first flock.
The productive backyard
Backyard hens, without the burden.
We design, build and tend henhouses for design-conscious Bay Area homeowners. You keep the morning gather, and none of the work.
The service
We design, build and tend.
01
Design
We size the flock to your backyard and your city's rules, then design the henhouse to suit the site. Nothing to choose, nothing to second-guess.
02
Build
We build and install in a day or two. Leveled, anchored and predator-proofed, it looks like it grew out of the garden.
03
Tend
Then a concierge who knows hens tends the flock on a schedule you set. You keep the morning gather, and none of the chores.
The henhouses
Three sizes, one standard.

Flagship henhouse · 6–7 hens
Loft
A walk-in run with the henhouse raised above the rear.
Sanctuary, detached walk-in henhouse and run, integrated garden beds, oaks beyond, dawn
Estate henhouse · 8–12 hens
Sanctuary
An estate-scale refuge with integrated landscape.

The care
The care is the work.
Once the flock is settled, a concierge who knows hens visits on a schedule you set. We handle the feed, the cleaning, the seasonal changes and the health checks, with a vet line when something needs a closer look.
The henhouse looks like it grew out of the garden. And we've never once thought about the work.
