Chickens in the Garden!

This may seem something akin to an oxymoron, but apparently it doesn't have to be so. While many a "chicken farmer" has been disappointed to find their seedlings and plants disheveled after their dear fowl friends took a stroll through the vegetable beds, Jessi Bloom (author of Free-Range Chicken Gardens) says she's learned a thing or two that can bring bird and garden together in harmony. Wouldn't that be nice?!
