Local Food Day

 

I work at Kiwassa Neighbourhood House as a Food Program Coordinator and have started local food day once a month in the Daycare. I am wondering if anyone knows a backyard chicken or chicken farmer that could come and talk to the kids...maybe bring a chicken or can we come and look in your backyard??


 


We are at Oxford Street and Nanaimo...so we will serve chicken that day and local veggies.


 


If you have ideas about people or places to take the kids that would be great

You are all very welcome at my place - 2 minutes walk from Kiwassa.

We have 4 chickens and a big food garden.

Hi Stacy

 

I also have 4 ladies and would be more than happy to show kids around. I live on Lakewood and Adanac.

We have four laying hens if you'd like to come by.  We live by Playland.
