Protest Live Chicken Vendors in San Francisco

Protest Live Chicken Vendors in San Francisco

It is still legal in some areas of San Francisco to sell live birds from egg farms to individuals who slaughter them without legal oversight. These birds are shipped from commercial egg farms and sold at these live markets.

Many of these birds are sold near or in farmers' markets without any public safety measures in place to prevent cross-contamination.

LGBT Compassion is planning a protest of selling live birds at the Heart of the City Farmer's Market on Sunday, October 10th from 9-12 pm. If you wish to join in the protest, please email Alex Felsinger.
