Thank you for your response. It is good to know it wasn't just me, or me not spending enough time hand raising the little buggers. I keep them for eggs production, and spent some time handling them a…

I can't wait for the tour because I want to see Chicken coops! I'll be IN the tour next year :) When do you suppose it will be?
I have and build coops.
What kind of time commitment is there for being on the committee?
I would like to participate this year. What do I need to do?
I'd be willing to participate. Just keep me posted.
I was on the tour last year, and will be glad to participate again....the ducks will be more than happy to strut there stuff for everyone again!

I would love to participate. Let me know when the committee is going to meet, or if there is something I can do to help!
:-)
You are so SWEET!!!
and your yard and coop are to die for :-)...love it
I'd be interested in being a part of the committee.
Just send me the details.

Thanks I asked Chloe to read this as she is the one managing it - I am sure she will soon. I know she is traveling for work at this time so let's give her a day or two. Thanks Grace!!!
Doreen, I'd be interested in joining the committee depending on when the meetings are. My email is grason97@cox.net.
Hi everyone - YES The PPG Program Commitee is focusing on this at their next meeting (next week) I will make sure the Program Committee Chair (Chloe sees this thread - Thanks for your interest and feedback. Maybe some of you will want to be part of…
I'd love to be either on the tour or take a tour! November sounds excellent :-)
November would be a good time to have the tour. Or October?
I would love to be added to the tour, as well. Just let us know how to apply.
laura
Count me in also! I think November might also be a better time.
I think it would be a great idea to include both larger yard/larger coop folks, as well as those of us that make the best out of limited space.
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I live in Central Phoenix. I teach middle school: this is my first year teaching science to 7th graders. Last year, I taught writing to them. I love to read, which I had time for when I was a stay-at-home mom for many years (after I quit working as a lawyer. The "lawyering biz" pays better and is easier but teaching is much more important.) I have a husband of 27 yrs, 3 teens, many interests and not enough time. I have 9 hens, 2 parakeets, 1 cat 3 dogs 5 AZ desert tortises 2 African desert tortises, 1 bunny, and board 3 horses with a friend. I don't garden at present because I hate veggies (veggies are what food eats) and my attempts to understand how to do it in this dessert have failed so far.

- Hi, LeAnn:
Sorry about the repeats, my machine did that without my permission. I mixed you up with Liz, who also lives close to 7th St & Glendale, and I am making a delivery to her tomorrow mid-late morning Jan. 7, of 2 buckets of coffee grounds and maybe a bag or so of pecan leaves. If you would like some, I now have enough and would be happy to swing by. Let me know. nanmar@cox.net, or (602) 248-7810. Nancy
