Chicken Class at the Seattle Free School
I swear, I'm done with poultry as of this post, but I just learned about this class and wanted to post a notice. The brand-new Seattle Free School is offering its first class the weekend after next:
Keeping Chickens in the City
University Branch of the Seattle Public Library
Saturday, March 15, 10:30 a.m.
The teacher is Jessica Dally, who appears to be the driving force behind the Seattle Free School. That's because, of the courses that are currently being planned -- several of which I want to take -- she possesses the qualifications to teach most of them:
Cheesemaking (Dally was a former cheesemaker for Samish Bay Cheese)
Canning (she's also a Master Canner/Food Preserver)
Basic Auto Repair (former ASE Certified Automotive Technician)
Keeping Chickens in the City (chicken-herder in Seattle for 4 years)
Beekeeping (has kept bees in Seattle for 3 years)
Getting Your Irish Citizenship (you can guess this one)
There doesn't seem to be a sign-up policy for the chickens class, but if you want to be put on the mailing list or if you're interested in teaching a course yourself, email the school at seattlefreeschool@gmail.com.
