It matters how the animals that nourish us were raised and slaughtered, and as with most things, you get the very best results from doing it yourself. In this class, you'll learn the entire process of butchering chickens from start to finish, with all tools (and the chickens) provided. This is a valuable skill, whether you plan to raise your own meat birds, process birds you've hunted, or just want to retire old laying hens or roosters with dignity and allow them to feed your family one more time.
Families and kids are welcome! You can all learn together on one bird, or do several. You get to take them home with you when you're done and you'll be amazed at the quality of the meat. The first chicken (price includes the instruction) is $25, any additional chickens are $16 each.
These chickens have been raised in the best possible way: my kids' 4H projects, allowed to truly free range wherever they want to go, enjoy the sunshine, eat bugs and grass, and fed a high quality, soy-free feed. You can come see these chickens and how happy and healthy they are, in fact, we strongly encourage you to do so!
