9 October 2018: Chickens in the Suburbs
9 October 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Chickens are an integral part of back yard sustainability. At our next meeting Julie will talk about her recent experience with backyard chickens. She has 3 ISO Browns in her small yard for her and her husband. The weeding was making her back worse and there is a never ending need for more fertiliser and compost so Julie’s family built a pen around her design with second hand timber and the experiment started! Julie has done a few Permaculture courses and has a passion for backyard fruit and veg and eggs. She has retired from Nursing and loves her new pets.
If you are interested in back yard chickens then this is the opportunity to come along and hear/share first hand experiences of chickens. Getting started, new ideas, problem solving, different breeds and advice and all part of the evening.
