Spring time is always a bit of a juggle... we always seem to be moving things around! As the weather changes and our seed flats grow, we are constantly shifting them around to maximize sun and heat. Moving flats between the house and the greenhouse and transplanting plants into larger pots is keeping us busy these days.
This week we will also be moving the ladies out of the winter coop and into their summer housing in the pasture. Our laying hens will be moved out to our 'chicken tractors' which are portable shelters that allow them access to be on fresh pasture everyday but not be vulnerable to predators. For the last few weeks, they've been spilling out of the winter coop and wandering around the farm... which makes finding their eggs a bit of a daily challenge.

If you are looking for a bit of exercise... you are welcome to pop by Tuesday night around dusk to help move 150 wily chickens to the back field!
