The birds love scratching the new grass, and the manure is great for the lawn.Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05442310215979259623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2107727598493805243.post-7688678642243799902011-04-11T17:20:17.773-04:002011-04-11T17:20:17.773-04:00Looks like your Amish neighbor has picked up on th...Looks like your Amish neighbor has picked up on the mobile chicken house concept.

The farm is called Garden Paths. They raise their livestock all natural and free range. And boy are they in high demand, even supplying some D.C. restaurants. Yet they are also very accessible and supportive of little guys like us, who are trying to self-produce much of what our family eats. You'll appreciate this last detail, when I saw them with the boys last month they had family down from New York to celebrate Christmas together. Why March? Because they can't travel by buggy in December!Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05442310215979259623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2107727598493805243.post-49938848516649553652011-04-09T20:35:04.146-04:002011-04-09T20:35:04.146-04:00What a wonderful site!
