Heritage Skills Workshops preserve traditional skills through instruction, demonstration, and experiential learning.
Register now for this heritage skills workshop to learn skills of butchering and curing methods from the 19th Century. The instructor will demonstrate traditional seam-butchery where only knives and cleavers are used. There will also be a focus on principles of traditional nitrate-free whole-muscle curing with bacon and ham. This class is a four-hour, intimate observational experience, with occasional hands-on opportunities. Bring your own sack lunch and filming/recording devices.
