Oregon Fall Poultry Swap! 9/25/10 11am **all details on first post!*

[Cloverleaf Farm]

Laura, you are way too prepared...I don't know what I'm making for dinner tonight, let alone what I'm bringing for potluck to the swap! LOL

And yes, Jedidah was kind enough to reserve our spot, and pay for it out of her own pocket...let's not forget to all toss in a couple of bucks back her way!!

Lol actually oregonjen and I have been talking in emails about it so I can't take all the credit

I know we did that for the spring swap when we got down to the final weeks.

My neighbor, not her friend, said she really wants the SLW if you are willing to part with her? She has two of my chickens (a BO and EE) and another EE and GLW that she has raised since chicks. Her dream chicken has always been a SLW. I can guarantee she would go to a very chicken loving home, never be ate or treated badly. They have a very large yard, very large pen and a chicken tractor as well. If this all sounds good to you, PM me and let's make it happen! She works in Corvallis and said she could pick her up today (if that works) or next week if that is better.

Ah yes, and she is getting better. We will see how it turns out.

Do you think I should make a jar for contributions toward the cost of the park? I know that sometimes we just forget and if everyone can see the jar, and we can give it back to Jedidah? I will decorate a jar for that purpose if it seems like a good idea?
