Natick Community Organic Farm-Organic Thanksgiving Turkeys

NCOF raises large domestic white turkeys every year and processes them in time for Thanksgiving Dinners.
Our birds are allowed to roam, graze, and romp on the Farm’s organic pastures.
You are welcome to come and visit our turkeys at the farm any day during daylight hours.
Our birds will be slaughtered at a USDA-inspected poultry processing facility here in New England.

Our dressed turkeys tend to weigh between 14 and 24 pounds.
We cannot predict at what weights the birds will dress out, but will do our best to match you with a bird in your desired weight range.
Our birds sell for $7.00 pound, based on the cost of organic grain, plus a $25 slaughtering fee.
Current Farm Members may enter the drawing for our limited number of 2021 turkeys before 10:00 am October 1.
The drawing will take place at noon on Friday October 1.
Selected participants will have until October 15 to place a $40 nonrefunable deposit to secure their bird.
Limit 1 bird per customer.

Current Farm Members may enter the 2021 drawing for our birds.

2021 Birds will be distributed frozen.
This year, we are requesting a 2-pound weight range from each customer and matching up customers with their birds prior to pick up once we get a weight sheet back from the processor. Balances must be paid off before pick up on Tuesday, November 9 2:30-6:00 pm.
Pick up veggies, pork, sausage for stuffing, and other farm treats to complete your meal.
Deposits are nonrefundable.

To brine or not to brine, that is the question. Some of our customers swear by brine; others don’t. A quick internet search will provide many cooking options.
Whichever method you choose, we highly recommend using a digital thermometer to avoid overcooking your bird. NCOF birds cook more quickly than ones from the supermarket.
