We don't want to boast, well OK then we just might have to, because our Bronze turkeys are looking absolutely beautiful! It's a little cloudy today but last week they have been strutting their stuff in local orchards with their green-bronze feathers gleaming in the sunshine.

As a family we love Christmas but the run-up is always a very hectic time for us and the turkeys are, of course, a big part of this. Our turkeys mature over a six month period until they become adult birds - about twice the age of intensively produced turkeys, which, depending on what size they are being reared to, may have only recently hatched and will spend their lives growing in crowded, windowless rearing sheds. Horrible.

Of course our 'slow grow' approach means our birds have been out on the farm - and basking in that September sunshine - for ages. Even though we hate seeing signs of Christmas creeping into the shops too early we just can't help but think ahead to December when we look at our happy turkeys.

In fact we've worked out as our last order for a guaranteed Christmas delivery is Sunday 20th December that gives you 75 days to get your order in. So what are you waiting for?!
