Those were the bad news. The good news? Our summer photo contest has officially begun!
This year, we’ve decided to honor the hen — this wonderful, funny, humble creature that has been saving lives for thousands of years: through its meat, yes, but even more through its “fruit”— the egg.
But the hen is more than that: it protects the vegetable garden from pests, keeps the yard clear of snakes and scorpions, and enriches the soil with its precious manure.
So, here’s to the “Ode to the Hen”! Have fun taking part!
And tell your friends too!
