The culinary school students came back today for more farm work. Today, we evaluated all of the adult rams, trimmed toes, and gave dewormer as needed. We then took a field trip to Karla’s to pick up our chickens, which were butchered yesterday. The students got to see a bit of the butchering process. Next, they came back to our house and helped us turn our chickens into pieces and parts. We got 24 chickens portioned in one hour. It sure was nice to have additional skilled knife workers to help deal with the meat.
Here are the students. From left to right: Erica, Kade, Leah, and Garrett.
Thanks, folks! We had a great time, and we really appreciated the help.
