..Actually, when you buy your deer licence this year and look in the hunting summary, page 9 there is a section that talks about this program. I also think this is a phenomenal program and one that is a win-win for both the hunters, the communities and the soup kitchens. According to the summary, hunters need to make sure they have a transfer permit to transfer their meat to FHFH.I was involved in an information session about this last winter. At the time they were only accepting moose and deer meat. Does anybody know if this has been expanded to include other wild meat.
I was not aware that this program was available in NB, I have hunted in Alberta quite a bit and know that the donating wild game program is very sucsessful there and many of the Edmonton area homeless shelters serve predominantly wild meat all winter long. The last time I heard the #s for it a couple years ago I think there was 750000 lbs donated that year.
