$15.00

What if your first step toward a slower, more intentional life started right in your own backyard?

This workbook is designed for beginners who want clear, no-nonsense guidance on raising chickens — without the overwhelm. It walks you through everything you actually need to know to begin:

  • The basics of starting your flock — from eggs, chicks, or pullets

  • Understanding breeds, feed types, and safe housing

  • Setting up brooders, waterers, and coops that work

  • Tips on care, safety, molting, and predator protection

  • Checklists and Q&A pages to organize your thoughts as you learn

  • A curated list of trusted resources, supplies, and reading to continue your journey

Written in a friendly, conversational tone, Chicken Keeping 101 brings together Kristin’s years of hands-on experience from East Tennessee to the Catskills and back again. It’s the perfect companion for anyone ready to learn practical chicken care and embrace the slower, more rooted lifestyle that comes with it.

“This isn’t just about chickens. It’s about coming home to yourself through the simple act of tending and care.”
