After all the fun we had setting up the Funky Chicken Farm we're expanding the Suburban Home Initiative for Food Production (SHIFP for short). The plan's to set up a bee hive next to the chicken coop and get that honey flowing while at the same time spreading the love and getting a bit of pollination happening in the 'hood.
