Special Episode: Avian Influenza with Kirsten at Hostile Valley
Today we wanted to open up the topic about the most recent outbreak of Avian Flu and hear Kirstens real life and very recent experience with Avian Flu and having to cull her whole flock.
We are so grateful to her for sitting down with us to talk about this very tough topic.
Kirsten is a published author and is mostly known for being the Homestead Communitys "goose lady".
You can find Kirsten on Instagram at hostilevalleyliving and at hostilevalleyliving.com
Please join us in listening to what happened, how they dealt with it, and their plans going forward.
