That painting by JoEllen Wang will soon be a familiar sight – it’s on posters for the West Seattle Urban Farm Tour that’s just been announced by WS-based Seattle Farm School, whose Katie Stemp shares the news:

I’m organizing a one-day tour of urban agriculture sites all around West Seattle. It will be Saturday, August 8 from 10 am – 3 pm and include more than 15 locations including private homes, community gardens, school gardens, and organizations that promote and support urban farming here in our community! It’s only $12 for adults and FREE for all kids under 18! Very family-friendly!

Buy your ticket online here, where you’ll also find more info about the tour.

    Why did the chickens “Walk All Ways?”

    “Just looking for a little scratch…”
    “Because they can..”

    Q: Why did the chickens cross the road?
    A: Walk All Ways With WALK.

    The artist left out the cigarette butts curbside in the top left hand corner could be mistaken as feed and accidentally eaten by the hens that provide our eggs that you and I eat.

      Well, gosh, NW, let’s just hope the chickens were only passing through.

    given the direction they are headed …

    Q. Why did the chickens run for cover?
    A. They saw the sign at Pellegrinos advertising chicken parm made using fresh, local poultry.

    We’ve had a lot of request for prints of JoEllen’s painting…will have them up for sale on the Seattle Farm School site soon! I love all the chicken crossing the road jokes…keep ’em coming!

    Thanks WSB for posting!! We are all so excited to share our farms in the city with the community!

    Is that painting called, “Cock All Ways”?

  • RayWest July 24, 2015 (5:38 am)

    I think the painting’s title could be “Cock o’ the Walk.”

Sorry, comment time is over.
