This is Going to be WAY Easier! Chicken Tractor Upgrades & Seed Starting
Making big upgrades to our chicken tractor! Also continued garden progress with a big seed starting day and succession planting.
CHICKEN TRACTOR PLANS?! Many have asked if we have plans to our chicken tractors and the answer is not yet! Cam is in the process of making some. Hopefully by the time we have them available we'll get all the kinks worked out :) As he mentioned, he is pretty swamped with projects right now plus a full time job. Not to mention figuring out the learning curve of how to make a woodworking project into plans, but he hopes to get them finished and available by summertime. Subscribe to our email list if you want to be the first to know when they are available. https://www.theseasonalhomestead.com/subscribe/
