Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
There's been a lot of talk about chicken coops lately.
Since my last post about urban chickens, our little babies have become stinky, young adult chickens. And it's time they move out of the house and into a coop in the back yard.
They grow up so fast.
As we're busy setting up for the big move, the Phoenix Permaculture Guild is on the lookout for folks with fantastic coops to show off during the 2010 Tour de Coops.
If you have chickens and a coop (and you wouldn't mind showing it off to a bunch of strangers), check the website to apply. The application is quite simple -- it just asks a bunch of questions about your chickens, their coop, and your yard.
Application deadline is October 15.
The 2010 Tour de Coops is schedule for December 4. The self-guided tour will feature over a dozen coops in the greater Phoenix area.
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
