Have you ever considered raising chickens in your backyard? Gwenne Baile, Chair, Camden County Chickens and Chair of Haddon Township’s Backyard Chicken Advisory Board will teach you how easy and rewarding it is to raise a backyard flock on Sunday, September 10th at 12:30 PM - 3:30 PM at the Camden County Environmental Center. Learn everything from choosing the right chicks, setting up a coop, and keeping them happy and healthy year-round. Rosebud, her Therapy Chicken, will be joining us!

 

This class is mandatory for most towns where there are new ordinances or pilot programs. You will receive a certificate of attendance which you can present to get your license. Come and ask your most pressing questions whether you are thinking about getting started or wanting to see if chickens are right for you and your family. $10 per person. Please pre-register and pay ahead. The form is located on the Camden County Chickens Facebook page. For more information, contact Gwenne Baile at 856-816-8508.
