Chicken keeping is a hobby being enjoyed by more Philadelphia residents all the time, and a workshop will give those who keep a backyard flock tips for getting ready for the arrival of winter.
Maureen, who works with Philadelphia Backyard Chickens, has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to raising poultry, and she will be sharing her expertise as part of the event. The ticket price for the morning is $10, and it has been noted that the class may be especially helpful to anyone who is just getting started with their own flock.
The event will introduce an assortment of topics such as care, housing, and feeding during the cold weather, and each person who takes part will receive a gift card they can redeem at Primex Garden Center. The venue will have chicks on sale in the spring, and the learners will gain knowledge they can put to use even before the arrival of the winter months.
Offering the public an opportunity to add to their knowledge base is one of the benefits of hosting an event like this. Organizers can even go the extra mile, working with a printing services company to produce monthly or quarterly newsletters.
Primex Garden Center has schedule this fowl-themed activity for October 17. It will start at 11:00 am and run for one hour.
