🐓 Farmington Considers Rooster Limits

Farmington’s proposed rooster rules would allow them only on agricultural lots of at least one acre; staff identified 275 qualifying properties. Hens would be unaffected, and rooster crowing elsewhere would become a nuisance under city code.

Backyard flock owners could face new restrictions; the proposal is scheduled for a Nov. 17, 7 PM hearing at City Hall, 160 S. Main St.👉 Read More

🦃 A Thanksgiving Treat Without the Trouble

Those pleading eyes under the table are hard to resist! If you share a little turkey with your dog, keep it plain, boneless, and skinless. Skip cooked bones, fatty skin, gravy, and stuffing, and keep desserts out of reach—especially anything containing xylitol. A small treat made just for dogs is another way to include them in the holiday fun. 🐾

🎁 A little November fun: Pick up a November Bingo card at Preppy Paws! Complete activities, try featured brands, or attend a class or Saturday event to fill your squares. Earn a $5 gift card for one line, $10 for two lines, or $25 for three or more. A blackout earns an entry to win a $100 shopping spree!

That’s a Wrap! 🐝

Thanks for spending a few minutes with me this morning! I love seeing all the ways our community shows up for each other, from students collecting Christmas gifts to neighbors picking up an extra Thanksgiving side.

If you’re heading out for groceries today, maybe tuck one extra item into the cart for tomorrow’s turkey drive. Those little things add up. ❤️

Have a good Tuesday!
