Chicken Keeping Class!


 
Join us this Saturday for a chicken keeping class. All your questions and google searchers will be answered live and in person. We have been keeping hens for a long time and have seen lots of beautiful disasters happen.
 
Chickens are a great addition to your homestead but there are things you should know before you invest the time and money. We welcome you to bring your questions to the farm to learn all about it. 

Breed, feed, housing, basic veterinary care is a great place to start.  Do you want chicks or pullets? How do you make sure you do not end up with a rooster? What are the current laws in Long Beach? How many should you start with and most exciting, what to do with all those fresh eggs!!!

You Built a Garden, Now What?

Join us on the farm for a hands on gardening class. Everything you need to know to be a successful backyard gardener begins with the soil. We will teach you what to do in your garden now to be successful all summer long. 

This class is geared toward people who already have a garden growing and need some tips to keep it thriving. This is a crash course in composting, vermiculture, compost tea, crop rotation, planting and harvesting. 

We welcome you to bring pictures, drawings and all your questions to this informative and interactive class. Please bring water, hat and a snack.
