I am looking at the Summer schedule, and wondering which types of workshops most of you would be interested in attending? Usually, I like to do the Meat Rabbit Workshop once in the spring and once in the fall, but there has been some expressed interest in having one this summer. Tentative dates for a summer rabbit workshop would be either June 28th or July 12th. If you are interested in attending (or know anyone else who may be), let me know as soon as possible so that I can put together a plan.
I am also considering a Back Yard Flock workshop for this summer - likely in July sometime (but no date set yet). I do not yet have a page up for that one because we have not hosted this workshop yet, but the topic would be the basics of raising chickens, for eggs, meat, or both. We would also touch on some of the ways that chicken keeping knowledge can cross over to keeping other breeds of poultry, such as ducks and turkeys. Again, if you are interested in attending this workshop (or know anyone else who may be), let me know as soon as possible so that a plan can be put into place.
Both of these workshops require a minimum of 6 participants, but 12+ is better so that we can have a larger discussion group.
Finally, I am hoping to put together a soap making class this summer as well. Tentatively, I am looking at late July or possibly early August for this class, and it will require a minimum of 4 participants. This class may possibly be held at a different location as well, which will limit the class size to a maximum of 8 participants.
I will keep you all updated on the plans for these workshops as more details come together. The more feedback I get from interested participants, the more informed decision I can make on the timing of these workshops as well - so don't be shy!
