Sara Adsit-Smith, Elkhorn, is on a campaign to get the Walworth County Board to allow backyard chickens, but it has been a long process, according to a story this week in the Lake Geneva News.

Chickens are illegal in any part of Walworth County that is zoned residential and Adsit-Smith has to gain approval from a majority of Walworth County town boards before the county board will consider a revision of its backyard chicken ordinance.

Adsit-Smith is a full-time nurse and mom, and she has been pursuing her chicken campaign in her spare time. If you live in Walworth County and want to advance the cause of backyard chickens, get in touch with her. We're sure she would appreciate the support.
