Where to Pre-Order A Local Thanksgiving Turkey

Buying a local turkey can help set the tone for your Thanksgiving or holiday meal. What better way to offer true gratitude for the people and land that nourish your family? The average farmer only makes $0.17 for every $1.00 spent on the food they grew sold at a grocery store. Buying directly from a farmer means they will receive 100% of the profits they earned.

Locally raised turkeys are also usually raised in more humane conditions, and are much more flavorful and delicious! 

Most local farms and retailers require customers to pre-order and place a deposit on their turkeys in advance, generally from September-October. Browse the list below or contact a farm near you to reserve a local turkey for your Thanksgiving table.
