The Northwest National Show

The chickens are coming!  The chickens are coming!  Geese, Ducks, Turkeys, and Guinea Fowl, too!  This Saturday, April 16th at the Skamania County Fairgrounds in Stevenson, Washington from 10-5pm.  www.pacificnorthwestpoultry.org

The Pacific Northwest Poultry Association is hosting their annual Spring show with over 900 birds.  This event is free to attend and is the national meet for serious chicken exhibitors as well as the national meet for Silkie breeders.  There will be 4-H demonstrations, engaging speakers, artisans & publishers with their poultry wares, a silent auction, a raffle, breeder/chick auction, and gorgeous birds for sale.  There will also be a catered banquet (tickets are $15) that evening with a dynamic wine auction featuring award winning wines from the Willamette Valley, the Applegate Region, and the Gorge.











Come on out-- speak to experienced poultry farmers/breeders, learn about the diversity of breeds, and get an eyeful of spectacular poultry specimens.  If anything, those of you who are poultry obsessed can give your family a break and yak about birds with people who won't glaze over when you talk about your flock.....
How could I possibly be dull?!
