EVENT CANCELLED

 

 

The Salt Spring Island Poultry Club was formed in 2009 and is a club for local breeders, backyard flock owners and pet owners of any type of poultry. Our members share, learn, promote, and encourage each other in a family-friendly and social atmosphere.

Over the past years our club has continued to grow, with over 400 Poultry enthusiasts in our group.  We organize live and virtual educational events, as well as run two American Poultry Association events each year for our members and visitors to “compete” for Champion.
