With about a month left in the archery deer season in Illinois, the University of Illinois Extension is reminding to get those donations into the them before the season ends.

Caitlin Mellendorf is a Nutrition Educator at the University of Illinois Extension on DeWitt, Macon, and Piatt Counties and reminds the deer donation program allows hunters to contribute a deer caught to the Extension to then give back to food pantries in Illinois.

According to Mellendorf, they have created a FAQ section about the program at the Extension websites as they encounter many of the same questions.

Go.illinois.edu/deerdonation is the website for that FAQ section and all the other details about the program. You can also find the program on Facebook.
