Halloween chickens

Posted by Nika On October - 23 - 2011

This is the first post I am writing from my iPhone and I hope that it’s going to be helpful to give more recent snapshots of what’s going on at our homestead.

The kids carved pumpkins today and our chickens helped with the mess.

I am going to be teaching about the use of the goat in the permacultural setting at the Northeast Permaculture Convergence this July up in Maine!
