Face Your Food Pre-Thanksgiving Poultry Processing Workshop

Urban homesteaders Francine Rippy and Jollen Gibbs will lead the second annual hands-on Whittier Time Bank poultry butchering workshop with birds they raised themselves. You will learn how to kill, de-feather, and process a chicken cleanly and efficiently.

Sunday, November 18
1-5pm
$25 ($20 early bird registration ends 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 14)
$30 at the door
Hathaway Ranch Museum
11901 Florence Ave

If you wish to process your own chicken, for $12 you may purchase a live rooster (raised at the Hathaway Ranch Museum) to dispatch, pluck, and process yourself. You can also purchase a hand-raised hen or tom turkey at $6/lb which will be processed for you. To purchase a chicken or turkey, contact Jollen Gibbs: clucknpeep@gmail.com or (626) 336-1033.

You will leave the workshop with practical skills, self-confidence, and a chicken or turkey for your Thanksgiving dinner.

Enrollment is limited to 15 participants, and spaces will fill up fast!

This workshop will take place outside so please dress appropriately. It will also be somewhat messy so wear your "grubbies." Each participant should bring:

- a food-safe, clean bucket for processing purposes
- a cooler with ice
- extra large ziplock or other food-safe plastic bag
- cloth rags or paper towels
- a freshly sharpened paring knife

The 2nd annual Face Your Food Pre-Thanksgiving Poultry Workshop part of the Whittier Time Bank Build-Your-Skills monthly workshop series, and is offered in collaboration with the Hathaway Ranch Museum and Legalize Chickens in Whittier.
