It was the best pizza we've ever had! I'm not sure how to explain the experience… It is evident that your ingredients are premium and your technique and artistry match. I literally couldn't believe it when I took the first bite, it blew my mind! I appreciate your passion for what you do and will recommend you to everyone we know.

Over the years their mission has expanded: 1) HHH continues to pay butchering costs for hunters who are able to take more deer than they can use. 2) HHH supports various municipal/private property owners that pay for the butchering process directly while they attempt to reduce deer populations on their property. 3) HHH sets aside a portion of the Department of Agriculture grant(s) to support and pay for butchering of deer taken by farmers and their agents during depredation hunts. Through support from their friends at the NJ Farm Bureau working with the NJ Dept. of Agriculture, all of their efforts of HHH ultimately help the food bank system in New Jersey and those families less fortunate. The Hunters Helping the Hungry Program was developed by three hunters during the 1997-1998 hunting season to help provide needed protein for local food banks while addressing the overpopulation of deer in our community. Ten deer (approximately 500 pounds of venison) were donated that first season. State Federation of Sportsmen Clubs, United Bowhunters of New Jersey, with the support of the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife and support of the New Jersey Health Department, have kept the initial efforts moving forward. Many individual hunting clubs also support this program. HHH is a non-profit 501-c3 organization. A small group of volunteers sit on the board of HHH and receive no compensation for their efforts. All administrative duties are supplied by the volunteer board members. Butcher processing fees are also discounted from normal retail fees by the approved butchers. Everyone who is a part of HHH helps through donations, volunteerism and generosity. Find out more at: www.HuntersHelpingTheHungry.org.
