A Little Rant In relation to Chicken Coops: Why Do I Worry? Posted: 24 Nov 2010 11:29 PM PST Hey everyone!

As you can probably tell, green living is a big deal to me. The ability to build chicken Coops are another are I think is very important in order to live sustainably.

Friend of the show Leslie Halleck’s adventures in urban chickening have not gone unnoticed, here or elsewhere. But till today I had no idea she’s actually featured in a well-received, just-published, just-landed-on-the-WSJ-best-seller-list tome on how the Great Recession’s frugaling up America — Spend Shift: How the Post-Crisis Values Revolution Is Changing the Way We Buy, Sell, and Live, by John Gerzema and Michael D’Antonio. The Amazon link lets you read most of the chapter on Dallas (titled “Don’t Fence Me In”), which opens at the Job Seekers Resource Center at the downtown library. But on this here website today, Gerzema excerpts a few (problematic) paragraphs from the chapter in which he writes about Halleck and the link between, oh, the old Victory Gardens and, say, North Haven Gardens. Writes he: Leslie Halleck was one of the first on her block to start raising chickens in her backyard. She bought them in 2008, as the Great Recession gained momentum, and then watched as people all over her neighborhood in East Dallas called Little Forest Hills, followed suit. But no one would have noticed if a black-and-white Dominique hen hadn’t wandered away from her home. A homeowner who alerted the gardening writer at the Dallas Morning News discovered the lost chicken. City officials got into the act and pretty soon they were getting anonymous complaints about henhouses all over Dallas. As Halleck recalls it, the chicken controversy was eventually resolved when city officials realized that no ordinance banned backyard hens. A hastily adopted rule against roosters eliminated concerns about noise, and nuisance laws assured that other complaints could be addressed on a case-by-case basis. Now, see, a lot of this stuff’s wrong, through no fault of Leslie’s. Like, the city’s rooster ban dates back to Laura Miller. And there is no backyard chicken ordinance — not yet, anyhow. And that missing chicken thing — well, that happened earlier this year in North Dallas, as Jim no doubt recalls. Nevertheless, Leslie tells Unfair Park this afternoon, “Their heart is in the right place. People are looking for ways to take back control over their lives, their food and their food safety, and many people in Dallas have made that shift — they’ve discovered what really is possible. The point [the authors] are trying to make is there. It’s just unfortunate they got their time line wrong.” I’ll get back to you more about chicken coops later, or you can see more about it here. In the meantime, thanks for listening to more of my green rants and I will get back at you soon enough! Have a sustainable day

A Slight Mention Regarding Chicken Coops: Why Do I Heed? Posted: 24 Nov 2010 09:35 PM PST Hello all! As a follow up to my composting article, I wanted to take this editorial in an alternative road. As you could no doubt decipher, green living is a necessary evolution in my life. The ability to build chicken Coops are another are I think is very important in order to live sustainably.
Tikkunfest Takes Over Pico Blvd. Taste of Abbot Kinney One of City Slicker Farms’ tiny but productive sites in West Oakland, Calif. Much of the produce is grown vertically, to maximize space, and there’s a chicken coop tucked in the back corner. Photo: Courtesy of Anne Hamersky, from the forthcoming book Farm Together Now Oakland, Calif., where I live, doesn’t have a lot to celebrate, what with budget-driven police layoffs and an unemployment rate of 11.5 percent. Still, one piece of good news has urban agriculture proponents cheering. Not about Oakland’s plan to sanction (and tax) large-scale marijuana farms, but the announcement that City Slicker Farms, a leader in urban-farming and food-justice circles, has been given $4 million to buy land on which to farm. City Slicker got its start in 2001 on a parcel of borrowed vacant land in the “food desert” of impoverished West Oakland (see Grist’s food-justice story), where 32 percent of residents live below the poverty level and mortality rates for diabetes and heart disease are well above the county rate. They soon started a “pay what you can” farm stand, and then a program to help residents grow their own food in their back yards. Today, City Slicker Farms operates seven Community Market Farms, more than 100 backyard gardens, a greenhouse, and Urban Farming Education programs. It grows 20,000 pounds of food annually. And soon, with state money, City Slicker will be purchasing a 1.4-acre parcel in West Oakland, the vacant, fenced-off former site of a paint factory that has undergone a thorough brownfield cleanup. On it, it will plant and construct what it’s calling the “West Oakland Urban Farm and Park,” which after extensive consultation with area residents will contain lawn space (for kids to run, play, and exercise), a vegetable-growing area, a community garden, a fruit orchard, a chicken coop, a beehive, a dog run, and a tot lot. It will be free and open all day, seven days a week. The funds come from Proposition 84, a 2006 California bond initiative that earmarked $5.4 billion for statewide park development and community revitalization. It’s amazing that what was once an eyesore will become a living, growing green space that will provide fresh food and sanctuary to a community that has very little of either. Having chickens and vegetables in your backyard is great for self-sustainability, but what if I want both in a small space? Seattle-based architect turned-self-starter Traci Fontyn has the solution in the form of the Kippen House; a modular chicken coop with a rooftop vegetable garden that creates a looped ecosystem to benefit both your home-grown veggies and eggs. The Kippen House (“chicken-house” in Dutch) is a modular chicken coop that comes in two main types; the Garden Roof Chicken Coop – a coop with a roof garden 8” deep, enough to grow small vegetables; and the Vertical Garden Chicken Coop – a coop with a sloped roof directly run-off rain to a vertical garden wall with containers for small plants like herbs or strawberries. The coops are designed with three foot interchangeable panels that can be assembled according to the requirements of each yard and covered with the material of choice; either wood slats, wire, egg hatch door, wood gate, wire gate or with external vertical garden. The modular design leave the option open for expansion in the future. I’ll get back to you more about chicken coops later, or you can see more about it here.

Nlyte Software has closed a $12 million third round of funding. The Menlo Park, Calif. company makes data center management tools that can lower power consumption by 20 percent, the company said, citing analysis by Gartner Research. It can also extend data center life by up to 75 percent. Nlyte’s software and web-based tools are aimed at helping companies better manage data center assets, find under-used assets and automate processes that get the best energy savings. Greening data centers has become an increasingly large focus area for big companies trying to green their operations — the centers are huge energy-suckers thanks to space, cooling and power requirements. Facebook recently came under fire for a data center in Oregon that will be powered by coal, and subsequently launched a green campaign and announced plans for a greener data center in North Carolina. Yahoo also debuted a chicken coop-inspired data center that it said would use 45 percent less energy and 95 percent less water than most data centers. Nlyte has added partnerships with companies like HP and VMware over the last year. The financing round was led by NGEN Partners. Participating investors include Balderton Capital, Ruffer LLP and Montalcino Holdings.

The idea for the coop initially grew out of the garden when Shelley started growing a vegetable bed and a friend over at Naomi’s Organic Farm Supply suggested she try keeping hens. From there Mitchell got to work in Google SketchUp and Shelley bought their first chicks, housing them under lamps in the basement until the coop was completed. The resulting coop is an incredible four-foot cube with a 4-foot by 15-foot run – in accordance with recommended chicken-raising guidelines – giving each bird two square feet in the coop and four square feet in the run. The spacious coop is a sleek, modern box finished with reclaimed cedar siding and ventilated with two high-set windows. Crowning the structure is a living roof – and while the chickens won't be lounging on it, the rooftop greens do manage to help keep the interior cool. In the warm months when the three hens lay eggs, collection is quick and easy thanks to a smartly designed hinged window that allows for discrete access to the interior. The project is more than just a source for something to scramble — Mitchell says, “We didn’t know what they were going to be like, but we didn’t just get them for the eggs; they’re really fun as pets, too.” Via Dwell Tikkunfest Takes Over Pico Blvd. Taste of Abbot Kinney Also today: The Los Angeles Magazine Food Event; Starry Kitchen’s Pop-Up on the Mandoline Grill Truck + Wine Tasting @Domaine LA; Day 2 of Artisanal LA.

A Petty Mention About Chicken Coops: Why Do I Heed? Posted: 24 Nov 2010 09:20 PM PST Hey everyone! As a follow up to my composting commentary, I decided to take this commentary in another route. As you can probably tell, green living is a big deal to me. The ability to build chicken Coops are another are I think is very important in order to live sustainably.
Having chickens and vegetables in your backyard is great for self-sustainability, but what if I want both in a small space?

This coop will throw you for a loop.Photo: Traci Fontyn What’s more hip than raising chickens and having a vegetable garden in the city? Growing your veggies in a rooftop garden on top of your slick city chicks’ stylish coop. Fresh eggs, herbs, and veggies all in one? It’s like a grocery store in your backyard.Photo: Traci FontynThat’s right, you can keep those mother cluckers cooped up while you raise the roof with your raised garden beds from Kippen House. There’s also the vertical garden coop model, with three rows of planters on one end of the coop and a sloped roof to funnel water to your plants. Perfect if you like your chicken served with herbs and greens. This coopéd idea came out the recessed-up creative energies of Traci Fontyn, a Seattle architect who found herself without a job but with plenty of ambition. She and her family dug the trend of urban agriculture and wanted some fresh eggs … which led to Fontyn’s “obsession Meant to fit in better in a city than behind a barn, these modern chicken coops are definitely an investment at $875, but considering they’re made-to-order, delivered and installed for you, and double as raised garden beds, the idea definitely grows on you. (If you live within delivery driving distance of Seattle, that is.) The only way to one-up this would be if you placed a bee hive and compost bin on the garden rooftop of this coop (hey look, both are in the works) and then located the entire contraption on your apartment building roof. It would be enough to make the most cutting-edge rooftop-farmer flip her lid. ——————————————————————————————————————————————– Like what you see?
