Join us for this fun fall activity using gourds to create your own silly chicken, while learning some seriously fun chicken facts! Gourds will be pre-painted, but you will add dots and create the feet, beak, eyes and other accessories. While your project is drying, you'll get a special guided tour for an up close and personal visit with Aullwood’s chickens. Perhaps you’ll gather some eggs or hold one of our chickens! Find out everything you wanted to know about chickens and more at this entertaining program. It'll be egg-citing!
