Thanksgiving Turkeys
Farm to Fork
We are so pleased to offer farm-raised turkeys. Our turkeys are hand raised as poults, or baby turkeys, and fed a combination diet of spent grains from our local brewery, along with a high-protein turkey feed.
The poults start their life in a hatchery before being express shipped to the local post office. Once at the farm, the poults live in a brooder box, which keeps them safe and warm during the spring months. As the turkeys grow, they graduate to the "turkey run," where they have more room to hop around, and literally, spread their wings. Once they are too large for the turkey run, or in the case of the Bourbon Reds, flying out of the run, they poults have access to our entire 12 foot by 20 foot coop. By the time our poults are around 10 weeks old, it's time for them to "fly the coop," and graduate to our 130 foot by 50 foot turkey yard. The turkeys have access to their yard every day throughout their adult life.
We raise both conventional Broad Breasted Whites, and heritage Bourbon Red turkeys. Broad breasted Whites grow faster and put on more pounds than the Bourbon Reds, which have similar characteristics to wild turkeys.
