Planning Unit: Harrison County CES

Major Program: Swine

Plan of Work: Health, Nutrition, and Wellness

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Harrison County ANR & FCS agents are teaming up with the Bourbon County ANR & FCS agents to put on a Charcuterie Board & Summer Sausage Workshop for clientele in both counties. Charcuterie boards are a new and unique way to display healthy snacking choices for events and get togethers that we are hoping to teach to our clientele for them to utilize for upcoming gatherings. We will also be teaching the art of making summer sausage along with a how-to on using a smoker as a low fat method of cooking to promote healthier eating. Each participant will be able to make their own rolls of summer sausage that they can utilize on their own charcuterie boards. The FCS agents will be teaching the Charcuterie board portion of the workshop and the ANR agents will be teaching about the history of summer sausage, smoking foods and teaching a hands-on portion of how to make their own summer sausage rolls.
