She purchased chicks and raised them until they could be safely integrated into the flock of adults. The flock is currently 21 strong and consists of 20 hens and one rooster. The addition of the rooster was un- intentional, but he has been winning Kimberly over. When asked which variety was her favorite, Kimberly replied, “The Speckled Sussex is my favorite. The rooster is so friendly with me and to me is just so beautiful.” Kimberly’s love for her flock ignited an adventure in learning and re- sponsibility which has been nothing but fun for her. “I really like doing it. You learn so much about each animal you have. I mean, I know more about chickens now than I ever thought I would. You really have to be careful with what you read on the Internet. There is a lot of misinforma- tion out there. For example, one site recommended feeding the chickens their shells for calcium. Well, our chickens started eating their own eggs after that. We had to put ceramic eggs in the nesting box to stop that be- havior. My dad also built a roll away nesting box so the chickens don’t have a chance to become broody,” Kimberly recalls. Kimberly feeds her flock only the best feed and also lots of treats. “We feed them squash seeds which are a natural de-wormer and meal worms which they love.” Before long the flock began producing more eggs than the Grovermans could consume. Kimberly has begun sharing her excess eggs with a few neighbors and her piano teacher. She received printed egg cartons as birthday gifts that say Kim’s Coop, and she stamps each egg with one of three stamps; yum, coop to table, or enjoy. Her neighbors have been thrilled and have been trading their homemade orange marmalade and honey in return. “She came up to deliver her eggs on her horse. It was just adorable,” exclaims Kimberly’s neighbor Marilyn Ganz. The fruits of Kimberly and Jim’s labor have not only been in delighting their neighbors, but also in build- Kimberly Groverman and her father Jim on their way to deliver eggs. ing stronger bonds while working together. It’s a life Kimberly enjoys, Star Dewar, of Star Shots Photography. and one where responsibility comes home to roost.

‘Resolution’from page 1 additionally for policies of inclusion and social equity. “The Sebastopol City Council will work jointly with members of the community to develop tangible, community-led solutions to root out discrimination, hate, and systemic racism, and uplift solidarity and the Sebastopol City Council will explore opportunities to prevent discrimination, bullying, harassment and hate crimes against individuals,” it states. At a recent Climate Action Committee meeting, committee members were subjected to hate speech by a member of the public participating via Zoom. Per the resolution, there will be zero tolerance for hate speech in public meetings, and anyone employing hateful rhetoric will be muted and banned from the meeting. “Our community is one that stands against hate and racism and wants our businesses, our residents, our employees here, our visitors here—everyone here—to be free from any hate conversation or hateful action or violence against them. So, it’s very important that we speak with one voice in this no tolerance, zero tolerance position that we’re taking tonight,” Vice Mayor Sarah Gurney said. The resolution also cites historical discrimination against Asian Americans as a reason for proactive action fighting racism, citing Japanese internment during World War II and policies like the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 (a Sonoma County chapter of which local hero Luther Burbank was a leader early on in his life). “It is very important for our community to understand that we have to not just say we don’t like these kinds of hateful actions. It’s more than just words—it’s all about actually taking action any time we have any possible opportunity to counter this extremely bad behavior in our community,” Mayor Una Glass said. “We can do more than a resolution—we have to create a culture of zero tolerance. We have to create a culture where any of these kinds of hateful, discriminatory behaviors become socially unacceptable. We have to do more than just enshrine things in law.”

‘School Reopening’from page 1 Perez and staff then presented the current planned reopening schedule. TK-2 grades will commence hybrid in-person learning starting on Monday April 12. Grades 3-5 will start hybrid in-person learning on Monday April 19. Secondary students, grade 6-12, will commence on April 26. Since transition from elementary to a new middle school campus can be difficult, the district is also planning a sixth- grade orientation the week of April 19 at Lawrence Jones and Technology Middle Schools. Small stu- dent cohorts will be scheduled to familiarize themselves with their new campus. There will be campus tours and some student activities to include art, science, and English. This orientation is for students only, not parents. Public comments regarding this item were heard from a half-dozen people. Two themes were evident. One was disappointment in the Superintendent, the Board, and the Teachers union that given the move- ment from purple to possible orange tiers that schools aren’t opening quicker and following the most recent guidelines such as allowing a 3-foot separation instead of the previous 6-foot requirement. The second was concerning why the district didn’t already have a plan for full five-day week in-person in- struction for the fall given the Governor’s recent announcement that the tier system is likely to be elim- inated on or about June 15, 2021. As discussed by the board and staff, the issue is complex and the logistics difficult. To prepare class- rooms for 3 instead of 6 feet takes time. To revisit agreements with the employee unions and adjust the safety plans takes time. There are a lot of moving parts to consider for this year and the district does not want to delay any further, reopening of the schools. As for the fall, Perez said they are immediately getting to work to adjust plans based on the new guidelines. She wants to have next school year plans ready for the public as soon as possible. She understands parents too need to make plans for the next school year. After the discussion, the board approved the reopening dates unanimously although Trustee Mark Nelson said his vote was because if the plan wasn’t approved then schools wouldn’t open as out- lined. The next regular board meeting is scheduled for April 20.
