Gallinas de rancho














Yesterday we picked up 60 live hens from Intervale Farm in Westhampton. We brought them down to Springfield and sold them to local immigrants for $4 each. Many immigrants buy live hens at a farm in Westfield for $16 each and make the most delicious chicken soup you have ever eaten. We paid $2 each for these hens and with the agreement of our group we will use the profit to buy more local products in bulk for our group. The beginning of our humble little co-op.
