Heritage Breed Chickens in Your Own Backyard

Backyard chickens are making a comeback. This cross between farming and pets presents as many rewards as challenges. Heritage breed chickens, like the ones your grandmother grew up with, are well suited for today's poultry fancier. SVF Foundations’ Game Keeper, Dan Oakley, and Resident Manager, Rocky Steeves, will present information on the traits and dispositions of various breeds, as well as what is required to keep your birds coming home to roost. This special presentation has a limited seating capacity and is geared towards folks interested in starting or maintaining a backyard flock.

Space is limited and advance registration is required.
