Jefferson County Farm Tour

Come see us at the 2019 Jefferson County Farm Tour!
Members of our breeder's collaborative will be answering
questions about poultry raising and look forward to sharing
their vision for the future of local, sustainable poultry and its
use in regenerative agriculture. Because of biosecurity issues
we can not invite people to tour our farms. But Finnriver
Farm & Cidery in Chimacum (https://www.finnriver.com/)
has kindly offered to host our table at their popular establishment.
Stop by for a delicious, locally crafted cider and to talk "chicken"
with us.
