About this Event

Learn how to process your own chickens confidently, humanely, and efficiently in this hands-on workshop at GreenHaven Farm.

We’ll walk through the complete process from a live bird to a clean, chilled, and packaged chicken ready for the freezer. This class is designed for homesteaders, small farmers, backyard chicken keepers, and anyone interested in becoming more self-sufficient and understanding how to process their own poultry.

During the workshop, you’ll learn:

• Humane handling and dispatch
• Proper scalding temperatures and techniques
• Mechanical plucking and feather removal
• Evisceration and organ removal
• Cleaning and quality-control checks
• Food-safety and sanitation practices
• Proper chilling techniques
• Shrink-bag packaging
• How to organize an efficient small-farm poultry processing setup

This is a hands-on class, not just a demonstration. Our goal is for you to leave with the knowledge and practical experience needed to feel comfortable processing chickens on your own farm or homestead.

Lunch is included with your registration, and each participant will take home one fully processed and packaged GreenHaven Farm chicken.
