Connect with local meat and egg producers and learn through hands on activities about:

  • Issues surrounding commodity meat, including the costs on human health, animal welfare and to our environment

  • Agroforestry and Regenerative Grazing

  • Understanding marketing terminology, buzz words & all the various certifications

  • Cooking with the Whole Animal (Recipes, Cuts)

  • Establishing a connection between our farms and our plates

We will also share a community meal together featuring locally sourced ingredients. Please register here so we can plan for how much food to make!
