March 29, 2011 at 3:05 pm · Filed under Chicken Events, Chicken Housing

Backyard Chickens Workshop
Saturday, April 2, 12 noon
Where: East Nashville Cooperative Ministry (807 Main St. 37206)
Cost: Free (but we’ll “pass the hat” for our presenter)

Ryan has been a backyard shepherd for some time now and has grown a strong flock (actual number kept anonymous) of heritage breeds. AS PETS, he admires their colors, personalities, and educational opportunities provided to his children. Ryan will have blueprints for his tractor coop that he designed to be cost and space efficient. If we are lucky we may build one. We will be comparing and contrasting classic practices, exposing misnomers and discussing breed recommendations.

Tour de Cluck: Our Community Bicycle Chicken Coop Crawl! “

April 30, 2010 at 11:21 am · Filed under Chicken Events, Chicken Organizations

CoopCrawlLogo.xsDavis, California just became one of my favorite US cities. Thanks to Reed, one of my former students, I learned about the upcoming Tour de Cluck Bicycle Chicken Coop Crawl on May 22, 2010!

“The Tour de Cluck: A Bicycle Chicken Coop Crawl!”, presented by the Davis Farm to School Connection, offers the chicken lovers and chicken curious among us the opportunity to visit a variety of our Davis, CA community’s chicken coops. Your participation will benefit the Davis Farm to School Connection’s work to support local food in a healthy school environment.

How amazingly cool is that?
