Event Description
Mad City Chickens: Coming to a Backyard Near You!
Celebrate Earth Day with backyard chickens. Mad City Chickens (79 min. film) is a sometimes serious, sometimes whimsical look at the people who keep urban chickens in their backyards. From chicken experts and authors to a rescued landfill hen or an inexperienced family that decides to take the poultry plunge-- and even a mad scientist and giant hen taking to the streets -- it's a humourous and heartfelt trip through the world of of backyard chickendom.
Jordan Maynard from Southland Farms will be on hand to answer questions afterwards and Village Vancouver will talk about its' neighbourhood Coop Co-op project and upcoming backyard chicken workshops..
