Features of our Permaculture Chicken Pen and Compost Area

In this video I highlight some features of our chicken pen with the integrated compost system. The video shows how the chicken area interacts with the rest of the garden and how our chickens help us to create high quality compost for our vegetable garden.

    I am a permaculture student. I love this video because it is very detailed. Very down to earth. That’s my kind of flavour. I love to show you mine. My yards are divided in to two. My yards have almost all the elements you have in there. I am so happy. Great minds think alike. No, not really. I am only an applied student

    These chickens are very happy. I kept our own small flock for years and know how much hard work it is to provide chickens fresh grass the majority of the day, week in week out! Great overview and love the section overhead, would be great to even get any additional input on the cycle of things from overhead perspective.

    This proceedure seems a lot more natural and aesthetically pleasing. Rather than making a routine you just basically created a functional home for the chickens. Inspiring.

    Came here from the swimming pond video and I just love your whole vibe so I subscribed. I have many of the same breeds of chickens as you do. Very nice set up. I'm in Oregon and i am on a .20 acre lot but I have my backyard set up similar to you as far as having my chickens compost my garden scraps/trimmings/weeds etc.. I like how you have the wood rounds surrounding your plant root systems. I might have to steal that ladder idea to make my compost heap taller. What I do now to stop them from digging away at the sides is lay big pieces of cardboard on the sides and then put some heavy bricks on top.. it does a good job at keeping the heat in too (it's very temperate in Oregon where I live) and it also gives cover to the worms so they have a chance to multiply before being eaten. Seeing your ladies run with the grubs made my smile. I am very quickly loving your channel. Thank you for putting this on the internet.

    Feels so peaceful to watch chicken in their natural environment. I feel so bad how badly they are treated and caged all their lives before someone comes buy the chicken and eat them in most of the cities .
