Why buy local?  Freshness -  that’s why!  Freshness is a key factor in selecting a tasty bird.  Massachusetts grown turkeys can be purchased “fresh dressed” many seasons of the year, but they are particularly in demand during the holidays. Locally grown turkeys are tender and moist.  They’re carefully raised to allow a full finish to develop.  This means there is no need to baste these turkeys; they have a natural layer of fat under the skin.

Not all turkey growers are able to offer tours of their farm, but all listed below welcome your inquiries.  When you buy from a local turkey grower, you will meet and deal directly with the person who raises your turkey and guarantees its freshness.  Many local turkey growers also offer turkey roasted to order, complete with gravy and stuffing.  Turkey pies, soups, salad, and party platters are other items at some of our native stores.
