Highly recommended for anyone with chickens! -Holly E. from Columbus More Than Just a Cookbook - It's a full guide! The Coopbook, Wholesome Meals for Your Flock' is a refreshing new approach in the world of backyard chickens.

The bonus tips on sourcing sustainable ingredients and understanding seasonal variations are invaluable. This isn't just a cookbook; it's a comprehensive guide to ensuring your flock thrives. Every chicken keeper needs this on their shelf! -Ann L. From Roswell, GA. Thrilled Early Reader I was fortunate enough to receive an early release copy of ""Wholesome Meals for Your Flock,"" and I must say, it's been a much-needed addition to my collection. The recipes are thoughtfully and beautifully curated. Also, the book is not just a cookbook; it's a full guide. The additional tips sprinkled throughout the book are invaluable, especially for someone who's always looking to provide the best for their flock. The photography is vibrant, making it tempting to try out every single recipe. I particularly loved the ""Summer Berry Blast"" and ""Hearty Vegetable Stew"" especially since I could make it for myself as well with a few minor modifications. If I had to point out a minor area for improvement, it would be the organization of the charts, It took me a bit longer to find specific ones I needed, but once you get the hang of it, it's a minor hiccup! -Leah D. from Atlanta, Ga."
