About the event
Reclaim the Lost Art of Traditional Cooking
Did you know that over 80% of Americans don’t know how to properly part a whole chicken? In today’s world of boneless, skinless convenience, we’ve lost essential kitchen skills that not only save money—but also honor the whole animal and help nourish our families more deeply.
It’s time to get back to basics—starting with your next bowl of broth.
Join Culinary Director Nikki Mommen at Patti’s Place for a one-of-a-kind, hands-on Chicken Bone Broth & Butchery Workshop. You’ll gain confidence in parting a whole bird—from wings and thighs to breasts and backs—and discover how to make the most of each part with purpose and skill.
Then, using pasture-raised birds from Carter Hall Farm right here in FredCo, you’ll dive into the nutrient-rich, healing world of homemade bone broth—crafted the traditional way.
🧑🍳 What You’ll Learn & Take Home:
✅ How to properly and safely part a whole chicken
✅ Understanding and honoring the use of each cut
✅ Hands-on guidance for making gut-healing, immune-boosting bone broth
✅ The health benefits and traditional methods behind real broth
✅ An in-depth workshop booklet for ongoing reference
✅ A curated bone broth kit to take home
✅ Tips for storing, reheating, and incorporating broth into daily meals
🎟️ Space is limited!
Reserve your seat and reconnect with the skills that nourish your body and home.
