Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
A parade of home tours may provide inspiration for a new kitchen countertop but for those wanting to know more about that backyard evaporative cooling system for Brownie, Spotty-Dotty, and Tweetie, there’s the Phoenix Tour de Coops, a self-guided tour of more than 19 of the Valley’s hippest hen houses.
“The Phoenix Tour de Coops is a fun way for folks to learn about raising chickens, ducks, and other fowl in the urban environment,” says Bryan White, a volunteer with the Phoenix Permaculture Guild that organized the tour. “It’s really going to open some people’s eyes to the possibility of a more sustainable way of living.”
