Backyard Butchering: Processing Your Own Meat Birds

In this hands-on session, we’ll show you how we process our own meat birds, step by step. You’ll learn about different poultry options, including ducks for meat and dual-purpose chicken breeds, and how to choose what’s best for your homestead.

We'll cover:

• Animal health assessment

• Set-up and preparation

• The entire process from dispatch to freezer

You’re welcome to participate or observe, no pressure, just practical learning in a supportive environment.
