Livestock Processing Courses for Smallholders

 At Farmer Sharp, I offer practical, hands-on courses designed specifically for smallholders looking to process their own livestock. These courses teach you the skills to transform your animals into high-quality, added-value products, helping you make the most of your hard work and connect with customers who appreciate the care you put into your produce.

From start to finish, I’ll guide you through the process of turning your livestock into finished products ready for sale. This includes:

• Butchery skills to process your animals efficiently and effectively.
• Techniques for creating added-value products like sausages, cured meats, or custom cuts.
• Practical advice on packaging, presentation, and compliance with food safety regulations.

Every smallholding is unique, so I adapt each course to fit your specific requirements. Whether you’re working with lamb, beef, pork, or poultry, we’ll focus on the animals you rear and the products you want to create.

One of the best ways to learn is by working with your own livestock. My courses allow you to process your animals on-site, ensuring the freshest results and giving you a hands-on understanding of every step.

I’m here to support you as your smallholding grows. Whether it’s a one-off course or regular visits to help you process animals for sale, I’m happy to work with you multiple times or as often as needed.

With decades of experience in butchery and meat processing, I bring a wealth of knowledge to every course. I’ve worked with everything from smallholders to top-tier restaurants, so I understand the importance of quality, efficiency, and sustainability.

My approach is practical, supportive, and down-to-earth. I want to help you gain the confidence and skills to process your livestock and create products that reflect the care and dedication you put into rearing your animals.

These courses are perfect for:

• Smallholders looking to maximize the value of their livestock.
• Farmers wanting to sell direct to customers or through farm shops.
• Anyone interested in learning the art and craft of livestock processing.

If you’re ready to take control of your livestock processing and add value to your produce, I’d love to help.
