It is a new year and Seattle Tilth is starting to plan for the Annual City Chickens Coop Tour and they are looking for hosts.

This is an opportunity for you to show off those coops that you have hidden in your backyard and educate people about raising chickens in an urban environment!

This year’s tour will be on Saturday, July 11th, from 11 AM to 4 PM. Deadline for hosts is May 30, 2008 (this gives Seattle Tilth just enough time to get brochures printed)

They are looking for coops. And for those chicken and goat keepers out there… they would love to have you as well!!

If you are interested, please contact Seattle Tilth. If you know someone who might be interested, please forward this blog post to them so they have the contact information.

Also, enjoy this great Pacific NW cover story about city chickens published in the Seattle Times in 2002.
