Ever tasted quail and/or quail eggs? That’ll be our first step in this workshop, a tasting.

These great little birds are a good alternative to chickens. Quail still lay an egg a day, but take up much less space and are better converters of feed to meat than chicken. This workshop will cover many “how to” topics as well as the benefits and realities of keeping coturnix quail in as an egg and meat bird.

This workshop is perfect for someone who is considering starting an urban farming adventure and becoming more self sufficient by raising more of their own food.

Following the discussion and tour we will cull and process multiple birds. You don’t need to bring anything special, but be prepared for the hands on portion of this workshop.

About the Location:

Sweet Reasons Farm is a 1/2 acre residential home in Cockeysville, MD, where urban homesteader and do-it-from-scratch aficionado Kelly Carey raises American Blue meat rabbits and domestic quail. Kelly sells her rabbit and quail meat, live breeder rabbits, famous pickled quail eggs, quail wings, and natural rabbit ear dog treats. Kelly also makes her own cheeses from Pennsylvania Amish milk, bakes her household’s bread, does her own canning, makes her own soap, natural cleaning products, and herbal medicines, and keeps a small vegetable garden.
She’s also not afraid to pull her son out of school for a day to help her do important things like build pallet fences.
