As part of the Healthy Child Blog Carnival, on the theme of Splendor in the Grass, we submitted my post about urban chicken farming. This carnival is part of an ongoing effort by Healthy Child Healthy World to help inspire a movement to protect children from harmful chemicals.
The theme of backyards drew a wide range of posts from fleas to dirt to organic food all wrapped up in a pesticide-free wrapper. Check ‘em out.
