Waawaakesh (Deer) Processing Workshop   

October 14, 2025  •  5:00pm to 8:00pm

(Rescheduled from October 7 to October 14) 

We are seeking ONE freshly* harvested deer donation to make this year's workshop possible

*The donated deer can only be accepted between Sunday, October 12, and Tuesday, October 14, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Join our hands-on workshop where we'll start with a field-dressed deer and show you how to skin, quarter, break down cuts of meat, and vaccum-packing meat. Plus, we'll have a smoker running with delicious venison jerky to sample.

If you have any questions or would like to sign up, please contact our Agriculture Manager, William Derouin.
