Welcome from another North Carolinian - we live in Cedar Grove, about an hour west of Raleigh - used to drive there 5 dys a wk before we retired.
My grandparents raised a good sized backyard flock for meat and eggs through the 60's. I lived with them and we rarely went to the grocery store since we grew most of our food. At the time, I couldn't wait to move to the "city" and buy all that pretty food from the grocery store. Fast forward to 2011 and I'm raising chickens and as many veggies as I can tuck into my small garden.
Good luck with your presentation. I also find it funny that it's considered perfectly legal and normal to have dogs as large as a small horse, but people look at you funny when you mention raising chickens. I love the fact that my pets provide me with yummy eggs, great fertilizer and endless entertainment.
I thought I remembered seeing that chickens are legal in downtown Raleigh's Historic Oakwood?
