Chicken Farmers hatch new plan

Our family loves the eggs and chicken we buy at the Hillsdale Farmers market booth, run by Kookoolan Farms. So do many others, as the egg supply runs out about fifteen minutes after the opening bell.

Recently, Kookoolan Farms owners Chrissie and Koorosh Zaerpoor announced that they are dramatically reducing the number of chickens they raise in order to pursue more natural and sustainable practices, including letting the birds spend their lives outdoors foraging on grass and insects.

The chickens will only be sold at Kookoolan Farms in Yamhill and once each month at the Hillsdale Farmers Market. Mark your calendar for April 19, the first weekend of availability in Hillsdale.
