John Howe Turkeys

We are a small family farm, which started producing turkeys in 1976 with just 25 birds. Since then our whole ethos has remained simply; to produce the very best turkey possible. To that end all our turkeys, both white and bronze, are free range and roam the grassy paddocks and meadows of our farm from 8 weeks of age. This enables to lead a happy and natural lifestyle, supplemented by free access to covered yards where they have clean straw bedding, food and water.

Our turkeys are slow growing, old fashioned breads, reared to full maturity on a natural, cereal based diet, free from antibiotics and growth promoters, to give that delicious and succulent flavour.

Processed on the farm using mainly tradition methods, thus negating the need for live transportation, they are all dry plucked by hand and are hung for a minimum of 10 days in a temperature controlled room.

All turkeys are subject to three stages of quality control to ensure that your bird reaches you in perfect condition.
