Urban homesteader Jollen Gibbs leads the third annual hands-on Whittier Time Bank poultry butchering workshop with birds raised on her La Habra Heights farm. You will learn how to kill, de-feather, and process a chicken cleanly and efficiently.

Barley's Farm
2425 Panchoy Place

If you wish to process your own chicken, for $12 ($10 each additional bird) you may purchase a live bird (raised at Barley's Farm) to dispatch, pluck, and process yourself. You can also purchase a hand-raised hen or tom turkey ($80). ***Supplies are limited.*** To reserve a chicken or turkey, contact Jollen Gibbs: jocoupon@yahoo.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: 3.5 inches, plain edge blade (not serrated)

The 3rd 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 Barley's Farm and Legalize Chickens in Whittier.
