04 Apr Virtual Book Par-tay!

Posted at 02:01h in Chicken Garden Book, Giveaway by

It has been a little over 2 months and I am thrilled to say that my little baby book Free Range Chicken Gardens is growing up and is in its FOURTH printing already!  Holy hen manure! I still haven’t wrapped my head around it. I am just elated that so many gardeners are enjoying the book and learning how to provide habitat that can benefit us and our flock and how to utilize chickens for their natural behaviors.

Since I never had a proper book release party (I was recovering from surgery at the time of release) and spring has hit in full force for me already, I didn’t want to miss out on celebrating the book’s success in a way that everyone can join in!  So, it is wonderful that my publisher Timber Press is offering a special giveaway for two great books: Free Range Chicken Gardens  AND The Fresh Egg Cookbook with many of my favorite bloggers who are all fabulous gardening/chicken keeping/foodie rock stars and if you are not already following them, you should be! Be sure to check out their websites below to have multiple chances to win! I am also including the opportunity to win a subscription to Chicken magazine from my blog along with the books- the party contest will end on April 12th!
