get your urban chickens on in Seattle

Seattle Tilth, a fantastic nonprofit dedicated to cultivating a sustainable community, one garden at a time, has published their 2009 schedule of classes and workshops.

If you're lucky enough to live in the area and want to get to know more about raising your own urban chickens, you'd do well to attend one of their upcoming chicken classes:

• Feb 21: City Chicks - Starting with Baby Chicks
• Mar 07: City Chickens 101
• Jun 20: City Chickens 201: Advanced Poultry Keeping

I've heard nothing but good things about the folks at Tilth and the quality of the classes they teach. The workshops fill up quickly so register soon (just click the links above).

And tell 'em UrbanChickens.net sent you (and wishes we were local, too)!
