Joe from Around the Farm Table (a PBS show devoted to
promoting creative and sustainable farms) emailed me a couple of
weeks ago to share the waterer he made out of one of our do it yourself
kits. He
wrote:
replace all chicken waterers. I have a PVC pipe routed to a
hanging waterer with a hole on the top of my moveable pen (blue
bucket on the very far right of the picture). I simply pour
water in and clean the hanging bucket at the end of the
season. I have a great system for pasture poultry now –
thank you!”
When I emailed back
to say that I liked his chicken tractor, Joe explained that “the
aluminum structure is a recycled awning from an old Farmer Store in
Wisconsin.” Looks like a great use of found materials!
