OUR STORY
Rooted in Homestead Living
​
Founded by Sean and Glauci Doherty in 2023, Island Custom Coops began as a family passion project and has grown into a business rooted in homestead living.

ABOUT ISLAND CUSTOM COOPS
​​​
What began with handcrafted chicken coops has grown into something much more—a place where gardening, sourdough baking, food preservation, workshops, and homestead living come together.
​
Today, we share our passion for homestead living through custom chicken coops, farmstands designed to be both functional and beautiful, helping families raise backyard chickens and enjoy a more connected lifestyle.
Alongside our builds, we share practical homestead skills through hands-on workshops, seasonal projects, and resources designed to inspire confidence in the kitchen, garden, and home.
​
We believe that some of life's greatest moments happen when you grow our own food, gather around the table and create something with our hands.
​
Whether teaching sourdough class, hosting a canning workshop, planting a garden, or building a coop, our goal remains the same: to encourage others to embrace a slower, more intentional way of living.
​
Grow • Gather • Create
These three words guide everything we do.​
​
Grow food, flowers, and skills.
Gather around the table with family and friends.
Create confidence through hands-on learning and making.
