FAQs

Cost?

2026 prices are $6.40/lb. dressed weight picked up at the farm. If picked up at the Clark Park market location in Philadelphia, the cost is $7.75/lb. dressed weight. Your paid deposit of $60 at ordering is deducted from your checkout price at pickup.

For example: You place a $60 deposit on a 16-18 lb. whole turkey to be picked up at the farm. At pickup, your turkey weighs 18 lbs. [18 lbs. X $6.40/lb. = $115.20] minus the $60 deposit means you will pay $55.20 at pickup.

If a cut turkey is desired, a $20 cutting fee is received at the time of placing your order.

How are the turkeys raised?

Our Broad Breasted White turkeys are pasture-­raised outdoors and regularly rotated to fresh grass. They are antibiotic free and supplemented with a locally-­produced, non-­GMO grain mix. Supplemental feed is corn and soy free.

How are they harvested?

By hand in our on-farm processing abattoir. Our birds do not travel long distances to our on-farm processing area, and each bird is moved by hand throughout the process. They are not pumped full of water and saline solution as most commercially processed birds are. Lots of clean water is used! There is no chlorine or other antibacterials added to rinse or chilling waters.

Will I get the weight I order?

We select a turkey for you as close to your preferred weight as possible. The earlier you order, the better your chance of getting the size you requested.

We expect our turkeys to weigh 14 – 28+ lbs. . This year, we ordered three different batches of turkey poults over several weeks, hoping to provide a range of weights to fit your needs!

What will I receive?

A freshly-dressed, fully-chilled, never-frozen whole turkey ready to be cooked; neck and giblets (heart, liver, gizzard) included. If you do not prefer a whole bird, for a $20 cutting fee, a whole bird (2 drumsticks, 2 thighs, 2 wings, 1 whole breast, 1 cut back & neck, giblets) will be packaged in freezable bags for your convenience. Request this option on the reservation form.

How do I hold my turkey until cooking?

While your fresh turkey will safely keep on a refrigerator shelf for a day or two, for longer holding times we recommend an ice chest large enough to hold at least twice as many pounds of ice as pounds of turkey. Don’t forget to drain the chest and refill with ice as needed!

Can I order a turkey breast (or other parts)?

We take orders for whole birds only, with the option available to cut the whole bird into pieces (1 whole breast, 2 drumsticks, 2 thighs, 2 wings, 1 cut back & neck, giblets). Please request this option on the reservation form! An additional $15 is charged for this service.

However, at pick up, whole breasts, thighs, drumsticks and giblets are usually available for sale individually. Please email us to reserve single parts.

Can I order a turkey for Christmas (or other occasion)?

Yes, we can freeze and hold your turkey until you are ready to pick it up. We package these orders in shrink bags.

What if I need to cancel my order?

Deposits are refundable in the form of store credit only.
