WTF News- September 21st

Wild Turkey Farms News- Sept 21

Some of you may remember from prior newsletters that two years ago Domisty and I got the chance to participate in Protein University at the Grove Park Inn in Asheville.  At this event some of the best whole animal chefs from around the country came in for 3 days of breaking down and preparing whole animals.  From this event came the concept of The Butcher's Guild, a membership association that promotes craft butchery and purchasing locally raised animals from local farms.  The Butcher's Guild movement has been gaining steam ever since and now has members all over the country.  So it was only natural that when we found out they we're hosting a 2 day training in nearby San Francisco we decided to go!!!  The agenda looks great with 2 very full days of classes with master butchers, sausage grinders, and salami makers teaching us the ends and out of the specialty meat business.  Of course this crew has a knack for preparing some awesome food so I'm sure we're in for a real culinary treat as well.  We hope to get some great ideas for future WTF products and possibly spread WTF stickers all over the west coast.  Who knows what other crazy business ideas we might get out of this???????
