Hands on Turkey Processing: Bring your Holiday Meal from Field to Table with Green Mountain Girls Farm | Open Farm Week 2024

Are you curious about what it takes to process farm raised poultry? Do you want some processing tips & practice or perhaps you just want to be more intimately involved in bringing your food from the field to your table. You can join Green Mountain Girls Farm for a hands-on Turkey Processing workshop. They will walk you through each step with some of their pasture-raised turkeys, getting them ready for holiday meals (or summer delights). You can sign up either to just watch & listen or for a full hands-on experience. If you’d like you can process the turkey you’ll bring home to eat fresh or pop into your freezer for the holidays. [Turkeys processed by our farm team will also be available].

Cost:

• $20 per person to watch & listen (+ 15% discount on a fresh turkey!)
• $40 per person for hands-on participation (+ 15% discount on a fresh turkey!)

Prior registration is required and there are limited spaces available. A link will be up soon!
