Sponsor a CERES Chook
For many, especially younger visitors, our chickens are the star of the show at CERES. The problem? Our chooks absolutely know it, and demand the finer things in life.
Even though the majority of them are egg-laying, we’re left to foot a bill of $20k in food that is going be-kerk, so we thought it was time that they paid their way.
We’d like to introduce you to three of our famous hens. Although they may look similar, these chooks have VERY distinct personalities.
Watching them scratch, rummage and flap around our organic farm and grocery is a lasting memory of being at CERES for many people.
Meet the Chooks:
- Young, gutsy, spirited, energetic.
- Always on the move, often jumping the fence to explore the world of CERES, much to the older girls’ dismay.
- Her favourite place to explore is Terra Wonder.
- Cheeky fills her day with a morning skipping rope class, jumping the fence to hang out in Terra Wonder with her pals. She’s always the last to roost.
- Strong, healthy, diligent, intelligent, motivated.
- A busy hen, she’s a regular layer and well known amongst the chooks.
- She’s finishing her Permaculture Design Course and hopes to teach the younger chooks about the impacts of climate change and sustainable practices for life.
- Between laying and studying, Heidi loves to spend her spare time in downward dog at the yoga studio, finessing her pottery skills or getting a cocktail with the girls.
- Matriarch, luxurious, classy, leisurely, relaxed.
- An older hen, Helen is looking forward to slowing down in retirement. She’s planning to move down the coast, buy a Tesla and finally get some cat-eye sunglasses.
- She sometimes finds the younger chooks like Cheeky to be a bit loud when they disturb her afternoon naps.
- Helen stays busy with her morning walks, cups of tea and never misses crossword club.

(You can buy these eggs at our Grocery!)
Our chooks are integral to the park at CERES, and not just for their personalities.
Our chooks are very important to help our gardens, veggies and ecosystem. Having them nearby helps with:
- Soil health for our gardens
- Speeding up compost for the park gardens
- Providing fresh, organic eggs
- Keeping pesky parasites under control
