We Connecticut-ers Really should try to band together and get certain towns to update their zoning laws! Naugatuck recently did it where you no longer have to have 3 acres to have certain livestock. I’m not sure the exact wording but I’m pretty sure that you can have goats, chickens, even a cow, on much more realistic sizes of land. A lot of the zoning laws prevent people from actually being able to raise any decent amount of their own food in their own backyard. As long as the area is clean, not a nuisance to the neighborhood, and animals are cared for all towns should be updating this law! If a neighbor is allowed to run a leaf blower for five hours straight, the sound of clucking chickens or a mooing cow a couple times a day is negligible!
