It doesn’t get much better than frying up a couple of farm-fresh eggs that you just collected yourself. Maybe that’s why so many people, whether they are on a rural acreage or an urban homestead, are becoming increasingly interested in raising chickens in their backyards. Join Andy Larson, Local Foods Systems and Small Farms educator with University of Illinois Extension, for a class on home-scale chicken production this Tuesday, March 10th, 2015 from 6-8pm.
The cost for this program is $5 per person and the class will be held at the DeKalb County Extension office at 1350 W. Prairie Dr. in Sycamore (inside the DeKalb County Farm Bureau building). If you have any questions, or need a reasonable accommodation to participate in this program, please contact the Extension office at 815-758-8194.

We need to modify the ordinance so we can have backyard chicken in DeKalb.
