PENN STATE OFFERS VENISON WORKSHOP FOR SUCCESSFUL HUNTERS -- UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.
It's a one-day, intensive hands-on program designed for hunters or family members who have an interest in expanding their knowledge of deer diseases, processing venison, and preparing venison for friends and family.
The workshop is held from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Penn State Meats Lab near Beaver Stadium on the University Park campus. The day begins with an evaluation of deer diseases (including chronic wasting disease), followed by proper field dressing, an opportunity for hands-on processing, and cooking/canning demonstrations. Participants will be able to taste venison products and interact with speakers.
