Come join the crew at Wild Haven Farm and learn to build the Sucovich chicken tractor. We will be building 7 of these tractors to house almost 200 chickens on pasture starting in April!

There are two main styles of chicken tractor, the John Suscovich and the Joel Salatin. Each has its pros and cons. We will be using, primarily the Suscovich design. Will be discussing the designs and our choice in the workshop.

Who should come?
