LOCAL POULTRY ASSOCIATION MEETS WEDNESDAY

High Desert Homegrown Poultry Association’s next quarterly meeting will be at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, January 28, at Yucca Mesa Improvement Association Community Center. Founder Charla Shamhart will bring samples of many poultry feeds available locally and talk about nutritional content that chickens and other poultry need to grow properly and lay eggs. There will also be a demonstration in sprouting grains for green forage for poultry (and other animals). Meetings are always lively and everyone learns something new. All are welcome including children. You do not have to already have chickens to attend this meeting. While there is no charge for the meeting, a hat is passed to cover donations for use of the YMIA Community Center. They are on Facebook at High Desert Homegrown Poultry Association or join Raising Homegrown Poultry on FB for poultry discussion and questions. For more information call Charla at 760-401-0689.
