Don’t be fooled into believing your “fresh turkey” is really “fresh”…it’s not.  It was probably processed months ago and frozen.  The USDA allows turkeys to be sold as “fresh” even though they can be frozen, for months, so long as it’s not at a temperature below 26°F.”

​

We offer frozen and truly, fresh turkey – never frozen and processed only days before Thanksgiving.  Only small producers are able to offer this service and it means you’re getting the freshest, most succulent turkey possible.  We also offer frozen turkeys which are processed early November and are much fresher then you get in the grocery store.

​

Don’t be fooled into believing your “free range” turkey was really on the range frolicking in open “pastures”….it didn’t.  The USDA’s (and industry standard) definition for “Free Range” is that birds must have “outdoor access” or “access to the outdoors.”  In some cases, this can mean access only through a “pop hole,” with no full-body access to the outdoors and no minimum space requirement.  In practice, huge, 20,000sqft barns have just one small door with a 100sqft “yard” that 98% of the turkeys never even get near because of the overcrowded conditions.

​

Our turkeys are pasture raised….on pastures…actually frolicking and eating bugs, worms, berries and grasses - just as nature intended and just what you think “free range” means.  Pasture raised turkeys get 20-30% of their diet from the land with 24/7 access to high quality feed as well.  They live happy, healthy lives.  On pasture in fresh air and sunshine and it's the most delicious turkey you have ever tasted!
