Everyone keeps asking how the chickens are doing. They're fine. I think they too will be happier when it gets warmer. I've dug out their run twice so they could have more space to stretch their legs. Our chickens prefer not to step on snow - but they love eating it! When Jeremy cleans out the coop he has been keeping the main door open so the girls can get out and wander around a bit.
This is the blog formerly known as “Northwest Meets Midwest,” where I shared about the absurdities and adventures of living in the Midwest (having moved here from the Northwest). But really, this blog has been more and more a story of how we’ve fallen into urban farming and homesteading. So read on and enjoy our adventures in canning, preserving, mushroom-growing, local/organic fanaticism, chicken raising, designing and constructing, sewing, and attempting a little self-sufficiency in our corner of Minneapolis.

I Love the stone work and brick walkway coming from the coop. So pretty.
That is so funny that they eat the snow! It makes for a nice backdrop to their plumage.
