Raleigh Chicken Tour: Henside the Beltline Tour D’ Coop
May 13th, 2010 Posted in animals, event, green living | 1 Comment »
That’s right, folks, the 5th Annual Tour D’ Coop is this Saturday in Raleigh (inside the beltline, of course) from 10AM-5PM. I went to the third Henside the Beltline Tour D’ Coop two years ago, but sadly had to miss last year’s. I plan on going this weekend though, come heck or high water.
Raising chickens can help you get free-range, local eggs. It cuts down on your food eco-footprint, saves you money, and gets you the freshest eggs you could ever imagine.
What is the Tour D’ Coop?
Hey, thanks for asking. It’s a tour of 20 houses with chicken coops, all inside the Raleigh beltline. If you’re interested in chickens, or just want to see some cool houses and gardens, I heartily recommend going on the tour.
When is the Tour D’ Coop?
I already said, but it’s this Saturday, May 15, from 10AM – 5PM. So be there or be square.
