Why We Don't Have Chickens

People often ask me if we have chickens, (or goats, or cows, or horses or dogs) at Farm Dover. We don't. I'm not saying that we will never have them, but, as Ed likes to point out, we just got our children out the door and are not looking for more responsibilities. Maybe someday...

But for now, we come and go as we like. Last Sunday we decided to drive to Grayton Beach and Apalachicola for a few days of beach walks, bird watching, book reading, boat fishing and all the shrimp and oysters we cared to eat. It was easy. We packed a suitcase, jumped in the car, and headed south. And that, my friends, is why we don't have chickens (yet).
