Cole Ward is holding a workshop November 8th, 2013 in central Vermont. For details check out this page.
Cole is the butcher we apprenticed with for 18 months to learn the art of meat cutting in preparation for opening our own on-farm butcher shop. He is a master butcher and a most excellent teacher.
This is a valuable opportunity – don’t miss it!

Daily Spark: Hope & Ben: Well, the can of Great Stuff Can-of-Foam said it was flammable so we lit a match… Guess what! It was!
Walter Jeffries Tinker, Tailor… A bit eclectic & a tad eccentric, polymath, quantum mechanic & Farmer. Also lucky at cards.
I wish I lived close enough to do this!! I have read so much on your blog about Cole. He sounds like a gem!
If you can not make it to the class then definitely get Cole’s meat cutting DVD set. You can order it directly from Cole at colethebutcher@yahoo.com via email.
In fact I would suggest that even people who do attend the workshop get a copy of this set of DVDs. It is inexpensive and hours of excellent review of the material. You can pause, rewind and watch it over and over. Our daughter Hope, age 10, loves watching the DVD and has seen it many times. She can’t wait to cut meat!
I second the recommendation of Cole’s videos. They are so helpful when faced with a whole hog (or lamb, or side of beef). He is a master teacher as well as a master butcher.
