Poultry Processing Workshop
Date: TBD
Hands-On Learning with Our American Bresse Chickens
Step into a true farm-to-table experience and learn the entire process of preparing your own pasture-raised poultry. In this hands-on class, you’ll process an American Bresse chicken, known for its rich flavor and premium quality. These birds are finished the traditional French way — fed fermented corn soaked in raw milk while still enjoying sunlight and pasture access — for superior taste and texture.
The workshop begins with a guided farm tour, followed by a step-by-step lesson on humane dispatch, scalding, plucking, evisceration, and quality control. We’ll cover everything from preparation to packaging so you can confidently process birds at home.
A light farm lunch will be provided, and each paid participant will take home their own processed bird.
Includes: Hands-on training, lunch, and take-home bird
