"From the Backyard to the Show Hall, We Love Them All!" We are one of the region's largest, oldest, and most active poultry associations. We are open to all comers and do not discriminate in our membership. Our members come from diverse backgrounds, united in our enthusiasm for poultry and rabbits, their breeding and exhibition. We also support education of things poultry and rabbit, teaching inst
ructional classes to 4-H groups, elementary school children, and interested citizens. We have taught 14 free "Basics of Backyard Chickens" classes in and around the Pittsburgh area, associated with Carnegie Libraries - classes that included handouts and hands-on chicken handling for interested attendees. We also host a Buy-Sell-Trade the third Sunday of March - November (but not in July because of the fair). Our Buy-Sell-Trades are well known for their variety & large attendance. At a typical Buy-Sell-Trade, you can find hatching eggs, peeps, young birds, waterfowl, peacocks, goats, guineas, turkeys, rabbits, supplies, coops & hutches, house plants, small livestock, household items, poultry and rabbit supplies, honey, farm produce, tools, and more. No two Buy-Sell-Trades are the same!
