Hi y'all! My family and I live in Central VT and are getting our first flock of hens this summer. This has long been a goal of mine and I'm so excited to finally be doing it!
We plan to get 12 chicks (golden comet, barred rock, and ameraucana) this year.
I know very little about caring for chickens. I have watches many videos abd talked to lots of people with flocks but I'm a hands on learner so all bets are of until my girls get here.
We are getting hens for egg production. I would like to have a larger flock one day and include hens for meat production as well.
I live with my husband and 2 kids (5 y.o. and 2.5 y.o.), my parents and their dog. We live in a rural area and are stewarding this land into a cozy homestead.
I am an acupuncturist and herbalist, and I'm passionate about local food, food system security, and regenerative lifestyles. It's a lot to work toward for a girl born and raised in the suburbs like me, and I think it's a worthy goal to devote my life to.
My neighbor encouraged me to use this resource and said it has such an incredible community and wealth of information. I look forward to growing with you all!
