THANKSGIVING TURKEYS - RANGE RAISED AND READY FOR THE HOLIDAY.

Ever enjoyed the taste of a free-range grass-fed turkey?  Those frozen Butterball Turkeys from the supermarket are not even comparable.

There is a unique opportunity this year for a few fortunate people to introduce the experience of free-range raised, as opposed to cramped, cage raised, turkey to their families and holiday guests.

Sean Stanton, North Plain and Blue Hill Farms Manager and Great Barrington Select Person mentioned recently he still has a few unclaimed birds available for this Thanksgiving. This is an unusual opportunity.

Most years Sean has sold out well in advance of this time in the season.  But last year while taking on new responsibilities bringing the management of Blue Hill Farm under his wing, he chose not to raise Turkeys, which broke the chain of a steady flow of customers who keep him sold out each year.

Everyone has not caught up with the fact that Sean is raising the birds again, so there is an opportunity for some fortunate new folks to enjoy his range fed turkeys.

If interested, contact Sean as swiftly as possible before the few remaining Turkeys are claimed.  You can reach Sean via email <seanstanton@hotmail.com> or by phone 413-528-2092 or 413-429-6598 To reserve your turkey and secure it with payment by check or cash.

We are on the list for the first time this year after several years of wishing we were.  Back in February Sean was giving me a tour of the farm when I asked him about getting on the list.  He told me he was going to raise the birds again and was just starting a list, so we jump at the opportunity to join the prepaid committed customers for this season’s birds. Join us.
