How to house your chickens safely and effectively is one of the most important considerations in chicken keeping. Correct sizing, materials, and placement are all important considerations along with the comfort and ease with which you, the chicken-keeper, can successfully accomplish your duties. This workshop will cover all the bases when it comes to building or buying a chicken coop.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR: Travis Robinson has kept chickens in his backyard for at least 10 years. He is interested in using chicken-keeping to increase access to food at a hyper-local level and in developing our “egg-shed” (not altogether different from a “watershed) to build a resilient community. He is also interested in how chickens can help build healthy soil and compost food waste. He consults with current and future chicken-keepers on best practices and presents at fairs and festivals whenever he has the opportunity. Passing along his chicken knowledge is a passion.
Tickets are $7 for general admission and $5 for owners and can be purchased here.
