By Dana Faulkner Nestled in a rural spot in the Tennessee countryside is my grandparent’s small family farm. It’s here that our whole family comes together on a daily basis to eat, share stories of our day, and watch the sunset on the porch swing. It is also home to a handful of goats, ducks, and a 30-year-old hand-built chicken coop, which houses a variety of breeds including Buff Orping- tons, Barred Rocks, Red Sex-Links, Silkies, and Sebrights. It’s where we hatch and nurture our chicks; handling, hand-feeding, and loving each one as they become a part of our farm and our family. My two-year-old daughter, Ellie, has always shown great interest in our chickens ever since she was able to toddle over to the small metal bin and throw her first fistful of corn. After a hearty breakfast including fresh eggs gathered and cooked by her great-grandmother, she is excited to throw on her pink farm boots and set out to the coop to let her feathered friends out for the day. Always safely guided and observed by us, she is able to interact and play with the chickens while they free range. There are few moments in Ellie’s life where she doesn’t try to involve her chicken friends. From tea parties to taking a stroll, even story time has every chicken in attendance. On her second birthday, Ellie received her very own pink chicken coop things we value most are God, family, and farm life. I am truly to house her four fluffy Silkies. blessed to be able to raise my children here, in the same com- When the day is done, our flock marches back to roost with munity where I grew up, surrounded by strong fellowship, a Ellie right beside them, holding the door and saying goodnight loving family and the opportunity to connect with nature and to each one as they pass.
