Me and Tab would probley join if you let us know when the next meeting is. I have been tossing around the idea about doing a chickenstock here at the farm, but I would want to attend one first to check it out. I have about 43 acres so I would have plenty of room.

I was wondering if we could meet in a public park, or something along those lines...instead of at someone's house. I have been tempted to join a Poultry Club...hmmm. Tell me more about it and what would be required of me.

The club meetings are at someones house because no one else wants to host it. But if we had a swap, I think we could do it anywhere. I was thinking of the Coop ext. in Oriskany. I use to work there, andthey let people do things for free. There is a nice Pavillion that would work with a roof & open sides, or even reserve a room inside with bathroom, kitchen, etc.

If anyone wanted to join the club, I think the next meeting is in March. Let me know if interested, and I will let you know. I think dues are $10 a year, cheap. They put on 2 shows each year at the Syracuse Fairgrounds.

Is Mary Jo on this list? She has participated in the shows.....

Sue

Sue, email me the info. I'd be interested. You also got me thinking...what about having a Blue Seal sponsored swap...at Richer Feeds!? In Sangerfield.

Ok, I'll let you know...I was also thinking of doing a Chickenstock, but I guess the spring one is already settled on.

It's like a flea market for chicken people. Everyone who is going RSVP's since it is usually at someone's home. You can buy, sell, swap chickens, eggs, any type of fowl, really. There's usually a raffle, a 50/50 and food that everyone brings. And a lot of fun

It sounds like a lot of fun!

It really is, you can put the names to faces and know who it is that is on here - everyone is a friend, it's great. It's like a picnic

 

[vmdanielsen]

so, where is the one in the spring and is the date set yet?

You gave a perfect description! I think Lovins is in June. Not sure. Can we have more than one? Some people won't make it all the way to northern NY...but could easily come to Central NY...I will likely find myself at all of them. They are fun.
