Turkey

Our Free Range and Traditional Turkey collection, from our local producers in Barkby. 

Our delicious turkeys are reared by the Kirks family from Barkby, Leicestershire. They are a family-run business who have been farming for four generations and have produced free range and traditional turkeys for more than 60 years.

The chicks arrive at the farm when they are one day old, and are cared for by the whole family until they reach maturity at 22 weeks. The free range turkeys enjoy a great outdoor lifestyle in the countryside and a warm and comfy spacious barn at night to keep safe from the foxes.
