Raising Backyard Chickens 2016

 Registration is closed for this event
Join Celia Bell, urban farmer extraordinaire and lover of all things fowl, as she presents on all the basics of raising backyard chickens in Utah.

Great eggs and great fertilizer come from happy poultry.  Come join our flock of lovely Buff Orpingtons and relax next to the Grateful Chicken Coop while Celia discusses local chicken regulations, coops, breeds, chicken care, and more.  Be on the cutting edge and be the first in your neighborhood to practice urban "eggriculture!" 

Looking forward to seeing you and talking fowl,

Marybeth, Celia, and our cast of feathered characters:  Lady Gobble Gobble, Marilyn, S'mores, Mashed Potatoes, Gravy, Ginger Chicken and Clarabelle

More about Celia:  Celia has been an organic gardener since 1998, has degrees in zoology (with minors in botony and chemistry) and in horticulture, and has had chickens since the spring of 2004.  Celia's chickens work very hard at her urban farm on garden bug patrol, soil fertilizing and preparation, and egg production.  Celia is a former WCG employee and teaches gardening classes for WCG, University of Utah Lifelong Learning and elsewhere in Salt Lake City.  Check out her awesome blog at simplephat.wordpress.com!
