In this episode of Mother Earth News and Friends, Hank Will, Editor-at-Large for Grit and Mother Earth News chats with managing editor Carla Tilghman about chicken coops. What’s the difference between brooders and coops? Between tractors and hoop houses? From two long time rural and urban chicken owners.

Hank is the Editorial Director at Ogden Publications, the former editor-in-chief of GRIT magazine, and it the author and co-author of eight books, including Plowing with Pigs and Other Creative, Low-Budget Homesteading Solution.
