Small Flock Poultry Farmers Database

All Small Flock Poultry Farmers (whether chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, or other fowl, whether for meat, eggs, manure, feathers, or other farm products) are invited to list themselves on this world-wide database.  By listing yourself on this public database, you achieve one or more of the following results:

  • Fellow Small Flock farmers can find you, so you can help each other, trade with each other, joint venture, etc.
  • Customers and potential customers for your farm products can easily find you, searching by Country, Province/State, or nearest to their home on a map.
Individuals can add to, change, or delete the information you added to this database at any time.  If you enter data, you agree that Small Flock Poultry Farmers of Canada ("SFPFC") can reasonably use these data for its Mission, purposes, and benefit.  Third parties are allowed to view individual records, but are not authorized to mass download, copy, use, benefit from, commercialize, mirror, or otherwise re-purpose these data.

Here is the Small Flock Poultry Farm Database for Canada + World

    Mapping Your Location

    Before adding your farm to the database, you will need your farm's Latitude & Longitude for mapping on Google.

    To map your location (so others can easily find you), you will need your Latitude & Longitude.  To get that, click Google Maps then navigate on the map to your farm location.  Right click, then choose "What's here?", a popup window will appear in top left corner of the map window, with the Latitude, Longitude.  Copy those two numbers into the following Form to "Latitude, Longitude" field, complete the rest of the fields in the Form below, then click the blue Submit button.  If you can't find your Lat & Long co-ordinates, Google will attempt to estimate it if your address is in a format it can recognize.

    Map of All Small Flock Poultry Farmers

    To zoom in, click on the map below at the point of interest (or click the "+" sign in the top left corner).  To re-centre the map, grab the map & drag.  For detailed info on a particular Small Flocker farm, click on its red dot, and an info balloon full of data on that farm will appear.  There are 5 test mapping points I'm leaving in the database until I have this system fully debugged.



    Note:   Google Fusion (the database used here) limits us to a maximum of 350,000 small flock farms mapping records, or 250 MB of data per fusion table, whichever occurs first.  Therefore please fill out the above form soon, as there are more than 50,000 Small Flockers in Canada alone, likely 750,000 in the USA, and millions on an around the world basis.
