I am collecting names of those who are interested in asking the city to change its regulations prohibiting the keeping of backyard poultry. Seattle Tilth is helping me informally by passing my name & email address to all “Edmonds inquiries” but wish you will post my info on your site as an organizer in this cause.
Most people ask me “why chickens?” and I have to answer “why backyard tomatoes?”. Chickens are clean and quiet (no roosters, please). Even the more populous city of Seattle re-introduced the keeping of poultry back in 1982 – - a long, long time ago. So what gives with Edmonds?
If you’re interested, please contact Susan at sueb216@hotmail.com
I would like to join with you to get chickens permitted in Edmonds.
Please contact me.
I too am interested in keeping hens. No roosters!
Yes, I am interested. Already participated in Seattle Tilth’s ‘Raising chickens’ class last spring with hopes that the regulation could be changed in the future.
I too would like to keep a few hens!
I too am interested in keeping a couple of hens.
