Find Butcher Learning Opportunities Near You

Breaking into butchery can be hard. We’ve done the first step for you. We compiled a list of remote, in-person, local, and international butchery learning opportunities, including “apprenticeship” programs, higher education, workshops, and classes. Let this list kickstart your career.

Apply for a Butcher Learning Stipend

We need more butchers now than ever. That’s why Good Meat Project is offering up to $250 in financial support for anyone serious about learning or honing their butchery skills. You choose the butchery class or workshop, and we’ll help cover the registration cost.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. We have a limited number of stipends available.
