"Modernist" chicken coop from recycled materials

FPC’s New Eden Collaborative grew by leaps and bounds 2010.

Here are some of the highlights:

The community gardens expanded to 41 plots plus several “teaching gardens” that demonstrated principles of Permaculture and No-till gardening.

The New Eden Organic Chicken Co-op was born. This innovative program of 14 chicken share holders raising taking care of 16 chickens ( and briefly 2 ducks) has been a great success.

New Eden educational outreach gave a spring and summer series of green living classes that included a NOFA (New England Organic Farming Association) organic garden workshop, and New Eden classes on mushroom farming, raising chickens, sheet mulching and more.

New Eden is now home to a colony of honey bees and hopefully we will be able to harvest our first honey this year.

The creation of First Parish’s outdoor earth oven and our first oven roasted pizza party.
