HUGE thanks to everyone who took the time to submit ideas for our naming our new chicken coop.

Victoria Gazeley lives and works in an 80-plus year old restored heritage log cabin on the wild west coast of British Columbia, Canada. Since the late 1990s, she's been studying the fine art of rural living, and has been living it since the spring of 2009. Since then, she's added (with a LOT of help!) a greenhouse, a blueberry patch, various edible plants, a raised bed veggie garden, 17 hens (and 3... oops, 2 roosters [red tailed hawk attack]), and most recently, a two-room addition using as many locally sourced materials as possible. Now she's living her dream - running The Cabin Design Studio, her WordPress web design and support business, via satellite internet, exploring all the nuances of rural living, and sharing what she's learning with others who have either recently shifted to the country or are planning the move. You can find her on her blog at modernhomesteading.ca, and at facebook.com/modernhomesteading and twitter.com/newbhomesteader every day interacting with an amazing, growing community of rural living fans, as well as her blogs at Mother Earth News and Grit Magazine.
