The annual Tour d’Coops, an event showcasing backyard poultry at sites around Lexington, is back!
During this self-guided tour of unique coops throughout the city, experienced chicken keepers will show off their coops, opening their yards to visitors and will share their joy in keeping backyard livestock in an urban setting. The Tour d’Coops provides access to local examples of the broader nation-wide movement toward sustainable urban back yards.
In addition to providing a fun, family friendly tour and community building event, CLUCKy hopes to energize those “on the fence” to jump into the urban homesteading movement and join the growing number of people keeping chickens for food and enjoyment.
The tour is self-guided but participants will first need to visit Redwood Cooperative School at 166 Crestwood Drive on the day of the tour to get information. Pre-purchase of tickets is highly encouraged and can be found at www.clucky.org
The Tour d’Coops Afterparty at West Sixth Brewing will feature a special giveaways for those who visit all of the coops on the tour as well as door prizes and further educational opportunities.
Limited edition hand printed posters by Cricket Press available for purchase ($25).
Tour d'Coops is sponsored by the Happy Farmer. A portion of proceeds from the 2024 Tour d’Coops will benefit Redwood Cooperative School.
