Village Vancouver is pleased to present six neighbourhood Backyard Chickens 101 workshops with Jordan Maynard in June and July, and an encore screening of Mad City Chickens on June 18.
Learn about the proper care and keeping of small urban flocks of hens and meet neighbours who share your interest. This interactive session will help participants discover the ease of caring for small flocks and ally fears and animosity about backyard hens.
The workshops are offered on a pay as you can basis. Suggested donation is $10.
To register for the workshops: Ross @ rmoster@flash.net. Everyone is welcome, but registration is limited to 15-20 people per workshop. (We can accommodate up to 90 for Mad City Chickens.)
Cheers,
Ross Moster
