Animals like chickens, ducks, rabbits, goats, and sheep can  contribute greatly to our urban homesteads by creating compost, reducing pests, providing food, and being friends.

In this skillshare + talk, Dylan Kennedy generously shares his insights and experience on how to integrate food producing animals into our daily lives. We will visit one or more example sites in the neighborhood and consider local regulations on animal keeping.
