In this bonus episode of Mother Earth News and Friends, we’re talking with Dalia Monterroso about her new book. Dalia is a frequent guest on Mother Earth News and Friends, where she shares her knowledge and experience on keeping chickens. This year, she’s publishing her first book — titled Let’s All Keep Chickens! — and we’re excited to interview her about the writing process, what’s in her book, and what she hopes readers will take away.
Dalia Monterroso, also known as The President of Chickenlandia, is a Backyard Chicken Educator in the Pacific Northwest. When she’s not teaching classes or doing seminars, you can find her on the popular YouTube channel Welcome to Chickenlandia as well as across social media. In 2017, Dalia gave a TEDX Talk at Western Washington University, where she urged her audience to accept one another through humankind’s most amazing common denominator: the chicken. Dalia believes that being among her flock has brought a peace and significance into her life and she wishes to share that with everyone she meets.
