Now that backyard chickens are street-legal in Chelsea, many are considering constructing a coop and filling it up! Long-time chicken-keeper Allison will discuss the benefits and challenges of raising chickens, and give advice for how to get the most out of the experience. All participants will be entered to win a dozen eggs from Allison’s chickens. Registration Required.
