TURKEYS -- Market & Heritage Breed (fresh, never-frozen, non-gmo, pasture raised)

ALL THE FIXINGS PRODUCE PACKAGE -- Locally sourced produce box with pantry staples for your feast

PIES -- Pumpkin & Apple


Our turkeys are raised on pasture, roaming freely in search of sprouts, bugs, and forage on our family farm - Wholesome Valley Farm - in Holmes County. Our pastures are planted intentionally for turkeys - rich in perennial grasses & legumes as well as annual "treats" like sunflowers, sorghum, and millet. This encourages the natural foraging behavior, developing a healthy & flavorful turkeys. Since turkeys need additional supplements via a traditional feed, we source our non-gmo, transitional organic feed from local farmers as well.

 

Turkeys are harvested just days before thanksgiving and delivered fresh (never-frozen). You can pick-up your Thanksgiving order at one of our 12 area pick-up locations the Monday through Wednesday of Thanksgiving week.

turkeys

market

Our most popular turkey, the Broad Breasted Bronze [bred for more white meat], is the right choice for a majority of customers. These turkeys roam a 10 acre pasture planted with a mix of sorghum, sunflowers, clover, and millet. The tall stalks of the sorghum provide natural shade for the turkeys. When looking out on the pasture, hundreds of turkeys scurry to find the next "shiny" object and peck freely for bugs and sprouts in the ground.

 

Market turkeys weights will range from 14 to 25 pounds.

Price per pound varies by weight range

Less than 15 - $6 per pound
15 to 20  - $5.50 per pound
20 to 25 - $5.25 per pound
Over 25 - $5 per pound

heritage

Our limited supply heritage breed turkeys -- American Standard Bronze -- have a devoted fan base. These turkeys have more juicy, dark meat than the market birds. The 100 heritage birds roam a 5 acre pasture with a mix of forage greens and trees. The trees provide natural shade and a spot for the turkeys to perch. Yes, these turkeys can be pretty wild at time and will fly up to roost in the evenings in the tree limbs.

 

The weights of these turkeys will vary wildly by gender -- hen or tom. Weights will range from 9 to 12 pounds and 17 to 20 pounds.

Price per pound varies by weight range
9 to 12 - $8.75 per pound
17 to 20 - $8 per pound
