Backyard Chicken to Table: A Hands-On Family Experience at Lightfoot Farms

  • When: Saturday, May 9, 2026,  9:00 am - 12:00 pm
  • Location: 8323 Lightfoot Drive, Nokomis, FL 34275
  • Cost: $50 per family

Family Chicken Processing Day: Saturday, May 9, 2026

49 birds. One day. Full-circle learning.
$50 per family (first-come, first-served)
*Limited to 15 families

Join us at Lightfoot Farms for a hands-on chicken processing experience—where families step into real skills that have been largely lost.

Together, we’ll move through each station as a group, learning the full process from start to finish with guidance, clarity, and deep respect for the animal.

This is where:
children begin to understand where food truly comes from
families grow in self-sufficiency—side by side
confidence is built through real, hands-on experience

It’s honest. It’s educational. And it’s deeply grounding.

A note for families:
Children are welcome and must remain under the direct supervision of a parent at all times. To help us prepare, please let us know how many in your group plan to participate.

You are welcome to be fully hands-on or observe within your comfort level—we are here to teach and guide every step of the way.

This offering goes directly toward the purchase of a commercial-grade scalder, helping us continue to offer meaningful, hands-on education on the farm.

49 birds — and we’re doing this together.
