Swallow's in the Valley
Written by Coordinator   

Protect the wildlife around you and don't destroy animals or their homes they live in.  If they are not disturbing you than leave them be.  That is what we have done at the market.  Swallows are helpful with keeping done they amount of annoying insects, such as mosquitos.  Enjoy these birds and appreciate wildlife.
