This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the straw badge in Animal Care.

For this BB, you will grow forage for chickens/pigs in a single paddock!







For this BB, the minimum requirements are:
     - at least 8 species, obviously more than 5000 calories
     - note that 15 pounds of sunchokes are 5000 calories

To document your completion, provide proof of the following as pics or video (less than two minutes):
     - describe and show what you are planting the paddock with
     - planting the paddock
     - demonstrate paddock is growing enough forage for the chickens/pigs
