Humane Sheep Processing

Humane Sheep Processing

$250.00

We’re partnering with Stacy Carr Hoofard, of Farm Foundations in Johnson City, TN to hold a class that focuses on humane handling and harvest of small livestock, following Biblical principles. This method does *not* involve firearms and would be ideal for the person brand new to slaughter and animal breakdown, or someone looking to hone their skills further (like me!)
We’ll get started 10AM Friday, May 1, and continue through the day until all of the animals are broken down into primal portions and stored for proper aging prior to being parted out into what most of us recognize as standard meat cuts.
LIMITED SPACE: If this class is sold out, get on the waiting list here.

Description

Biblical Humane Harvest

Join us for a day of education and empowerment. Through prayer, care, and deep respect we will walk together through biblical harvest and processing. Fear softens when knowledge steps in, and gratitude grows when your hands do work that your heart understands. You might arrive hesitant, but you will leave standing taller–no longer disconnected from your food, no longer reliant on unseen systems. You will leave with a practical skill, as well as reverence for something outside of yourself.

My background in large animal veterinary medicine, regenerative agriculture, and biblical studies led me to apply God’s word to help heal my severe disease, broken body, and food ignorance. My greatest reward on earth is to give back the life that I have been given and equip other folks with knowledge so they do not perish as I was.

To learn how to process an animal is to step back into an ancient human role: steward, provider, and caretaker. It cultivates humility, courage, and thankfulness. And in a world far removed from the source of its sustenance, it gently restores what we’ve forgotten—that life feeds life, and honoring that truth changes us.

Attendees will learn biblical principles, anatomy of common livestock, restraint positions, meat stress awareness, blood borne pathogens and why this matters, humane slaughter technique, skinning, quartering, proper meat handling and cooling, as well as access to a home processing video. When possible, attendees will be able to slaughter a sheep or goat themselves. Attendees will have access to digital notes of the event.
