Dear Chicken Crew, Dirty Dozen, and general Farmers,
As many of you know, we have a movable chicken coop on the farm that is just asking to become a permanent mobile home for some new chicks this Spring! It needs some repairs and renovations done (new wheel, new wire, fixing up the laying boxes) and some research on when/where/how to acquire some chicks.
Now is a great time to start this process, especially since the weather hasn't turned too foul yet. If you're interested in learning about the tractor and the tools/materials/pickable brains available at the greenhouse, send me an email and we can arrange a time for a group to meet up and plan a bit.
I didn't know beans about construction until I started the tractor as my intern project last Spring. I learned A LOT. If you want to learn and make a lasting contribution to the farm which will be fun and sometimes hilarious to watch grow next Spring, this is a great project, and we'll have plenty of time to work on it at our leisure between now and chick-buying season.
Best,
Rachel
