The 2013 Seattle Tilth Chicken Coop and Urban Farm Tour

We were honored to have nearly 125 visitors to our farm today!  Some traveling from down the street and others as far as Milton and Woodenville!  We had a fun time hosting and the girls enjoyed selling cups of chicken feed and lemonade for 25¢. I still cannot believe we were chosen as one of the city's "Top 25" urban farms!  It was a real treat to show off the aspects of our garden that work and hear suggestions of changes we can make to improve and grow as farmers. 
I think those who visited enjoyed their stop. Thank you to all who could make it, and remember all of you are welcome to El Gallo Blanco Farms anytime!

Daily update

70 today, but it didn't warm up until about 2pm. It made for a wonderfully warm Friday evening. 

Four eggs today!

Good news today from the Seattle Tilth!  They have looked over our application for the 2013 Chicken Coop & Urban Farm Tour and we have been invited to participate as one of Seattle's "Top 25!" 
We are over the moon, but we also have a lot of work to do before our site visit. 
Andy has made a to do list and we will get started on it in the morning. First, the final planter box out front. Then, off to the backyard!  Anyone wishing to stop by is welcome!  The tour is Saturday, July 13 from 10am-4pm.  Please join us!
