5th Annual Funky Chicken Coop Tour

November 24 @ 8:12 pm

Join us for the 5th Annual Funky Chicken Coop Tour. Including coops, chickens, ducks, goats, rainwater harvesting, gardening, and zero-mile radius local food, this event has something for all. The Funky Chicken Coop Tour®, founded in 2009, is an annual self guided tour held each spring in Austin, Texas, by the nonprofit organization the Urban Poultry Association of Texas, Inc. The purpose of this tour is to encourage city residents to raise chickens at home by demonstrating the many ways that chicken (and other poultry) housing can be incorporated into urban residence without violating city ordinances or creating a nuisance. Many tour hosts demonstrate how to incorporate chickens and their manure into a household gardening and composting regimen that results in inexpensive, healthy and sustainable food, even in relatively small spaces.
