Your Skill Instructor: Justin Rhodes
Hi! I’m Justin Rhodes. I’m a permaculturist and live with my wife, Rebecca and our 5 children on a 75-acre family farm near Asheville, NC.
We got into the food-growing movement years ago because we wanted to source our own nutrient-dense food for our family.
Today I’m the founder of Abundant Permaculture where I teach folks how to work with Nature to produce their sustenance and lead a more abundant life.
I learned about raising chickens the old-fashioned way by reading Pastured Poultry Profits by Joel Salatin (also a Skill Instructor at School of Traditional Skills!).
BUT it took a lot of blood, sweat, tears and chasing chickens for me to truly perfect this much-needed skill.
Luckily for you, you’ll take the shortcut and go from feeling clueless about raising chickens to enjoying your home-raised pastured chicken meat in 58 days!
