New Chicken Coop
This month our laying hens got a BIG upgrade! After careful planning and many volunteer hours lead by Lynden Farm Manager Jered Bocek the flock has been moved into an all new and improved coop. The new coop features, improved wall mounted nesting boxes, feeders, and expanded fully fenced yard. The new coop has roughly twice the square footage of their old space which will also leave extra room for an expanded flock this spring. Materials to build the new poultry habitat were gifted to Growing Veterans by an anonymous donor.
Since moving to the new coop we are excited to announce we have seen a big uptick in winter egg-production, an excellent indicator of their satisfaction with the new digs.
