Mad City Chickens Returns to Baraboo Today!

Our Mad City Chickens documentary plays in Baraboo, Wisconsin today at the UW's Campus Theatre. The screening, sponsored by the Wisconsin Humanities Council, is part of a larger event called Wisconsin: Making It Home. The focus is to get folks thinking about their food supply and to consider the idea of keeping chickens in the backyard.

There will be a post-film discussion with the audience lead by two teenage girls, Maia and Lydia. They are the two who spearheaded the movement last year in Baraboo to make backyard chickens legal. Their efforts were successful!
