Country Ham Program

Author: Trever Cole

Planning Unit: Mason County CES

Major Program: Agriculture & Natural Resources

Plan of Work: Youth Development

Outcome: Initial Outcome

This year I have doubled the size of the country ham project for youth as well as adults offering the class to both youth and adults. Eleven youth participants learned the history of curing country hams and the process of putting the hams into cure. This provided hands on experience into a unique part of Kentucky's history.
