It’s time again to talk turkeys. Like last year, we have been raising Bourbon Reds and Broad-Breasted Bronze turkeys this summer. We’re now taking reservations. Thanksgiving seems like the perfect holiday to celebrate around an ethically-raised, delicious meal with the family. So let us know if you would like to reserve one. New this year, reserve your turkey online! See below. You can also pay by check. Just stop by our farm store or farmers market stand.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the two birds:

- Bourbon Reds are a heritage breed. The meat will be darker and flavorful, and the birds cook very quickly. They will have different proportions than conventional birds, with much less breast meat. Our smaller birds will be Bourbon Reds

- Broad-Breasted Bronze turkeys- while the Standard Bronze turkeys are a heritage breed, our Broad-Breasted Bronze have been bred for more breast (white) meat and will have similar proportions as a conventional turkey. The flavor is excellent and the meat will be darker than conventional birds. If you want a large bird, it will most likely be a BB Bronze.

All of our turkeys are raised on pasture, enjoying the grasses, bugs, the landscaping around Eliza’s house…

Let us know what size you’d like and if you have a preference of bird type (the smallest category will be Bourbon Reds, the 18+lbs birds will be BB Bronze.)

Prices:

10 -12.5lbs birds are $75.
12.5 -15lbs = $100
15-18lbs = $120
18+lbs = @$7/lb
