Turkey
Heritage Turkeys
Our turkeys are raised the old fashion way outdoors. Farm turkeys are very efficient converters of taking pastures and converting those grasses into meat. Turkeys can get up to 50% of their diet from being out on pasture eating fresh grass and bugs. In addition to having an amazing salad bar we provide free choice wholesome grain to complete the diet.

Turkeys purchased at a supermarket store are most likely injected with vegetable oil, water, salt, emulsifiers, sodium phosphate, and artificial flavorings. We guarantee our pasture raised farm turkeys have not been injected or basted with anything what so ever.
During checkout, we request your ideal weight (15lbs - 18lbs) (19-22 lbs) (23-28 lbs). While we do our best to get as close as possible, we cannot guarantee exact weights.
Planning Ahead
Advance planning is needed when purchasing a pasture raised turkeys. Our turkey chicks arrive early spring and throughout the summer. Beforehand, we like to have an idea of how many we are going to raise for the three seasons. Most of the time we are sold out by the time Thanksgiving comes around.

What is “Hanging Weight” (HW)?Refers to the weight of the beef carcass after removing the head, hide, and entrails, but before it is cut into individual portions. It’s important to note that hanging weight is not the same as the total pounds of meat you will receive. During processing, the carcass is further trimmed and divided into cuts, with some weight lost to bone and fat. On average, you can expect approximately 60-70% of the hanging weight to be returned as packaged, ready-to-cook beef.
