In both areas of Cleveland's West Side where I've lived, I knew there were chickens and roosters nearby (some I saw, and some I heard), but I haven't come across any fowl life on the East Side of Cleveland, or in East Cleveland. I wonder if there are any other chickens in my part of town? There certainly were chckens on every property back when this was farmland, 100+ years ago.
My friends in Glenville and EC are all into the local foods planning for the neighborhood, and are interested in having some fresh eggs - they think the chickens are very cool. I expect this to be very popular.
They even like our bunnies (not for consumption).
The experience of the urban farmlife is nearly as positive for the body, soul and community as is better access to better food.
