Tennessee Hunters For The Hungry, 2009-2010 Deer Season
100,888 pounds of venison donated
403,500 meals provided
1,715 deer donated
54 Counties represented
70 meat processors in program
$35,900 to operate HFTH program that year

"In 2009, our Coordinators were responsible for distribution of 429,850 pounds of protein-rich meat," notes Josh Wilson, Operations Director for Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry. "Most of the donations are venison, but we also receive elk, buffalo, and some livestock. This equates to over 1.7 million quarter-pound servings distributed through food banks, soup kitchens, shelters, and ministries."


"Hunter interest in the program remains high and is growing as multiple deer tags are available," says John Plowman, HSH executive director. "Ninety-five percent of HSH donated deer are antlerless deer."
