  • Producing fresh, high-quality eggs
  • Helping keep food waste out of the landfill
  • Protecting your garden from pests 
  • Creating natural soil amendments
  • Having fun! Chickens make great pets with distinct personalities

All pre-registered attendees who are residents of unincorporated San Diego County will receive a FREE kitchen scraps container, courtesy of the County of San Diego. 

In this workshop, we will cover:

  • Local regulations for keeping backyard chickens
  • Basic requirements for making a chicken coop
  • Feeding and care to keep hens healthy and happy, and
  • Local and online resources
