Thinking about raising chickens at home? This class will cover everything you need to get started, including choosing breeds, coop setup, feeding, health care, and egg production. We’ll also explore how chickens can improve your garden, recycle kitchen scraps, and become a productive part of a small backyard food system. 

This program is hosted in collaboration with Tom O'Brien of Gardens on Glen and the Council Bluffs Public Library.
