An example - three of the original families buy into a couple hundred chickens. It's reliable protein and we share the responsibility of care. The payoff is having lots of chicken at a good ending price in the freezer.
My responsibility was "unassigned" to the new family down the road. Is our share shrinking? What's my new responsibility?
My kids are bummed and I'm thinking about what we're losing by "sharing" more work.
