What do you do when the rules don’t match your values—and you’re only 10 years old? If you’re Ariel Olson of Dilworth, Minnesota, you start a petition, rally your neighbors, and take your case straight to City Hall. Ariel wants backyard chickens, just like families in neighboring towns, and she’s making a thoughtful case for fresh eggs, food security, and a fluffy bit of joy. The council didn’t respond right away, but thanks to Ariel, the conversation has officially begun. Ingrid Harbo with Inforum has the full story.
Editors Note: Kudos Ariel!
