The sweaters are out, school’s back in, and we’re already thinking about our Thanksgiving plans. And you know what that means… turkeys!
ETHICALLY RAISED TURKEYS
We’ve partnered with Winters Turkey Farm to bring you FRESH, whole grain fed, free range, organic turkeys. Rest assured, these turkeys have lived a good life and have been treated with the utmost care.
The Winter's family has raised turkeys on their Alberta farm, in Dalemead, southeast of Calgary, for four generations. Darrel and Corinne have been operating Winters's Turkey family farm since 1976, and in 2023 they celebrate the 65th year raising "Winter's Turkeys." What a legacy!
The birds are humanely raised with total consideration for their comfort and well-being. They are regularly provided with clean bedding and have unlimited access to fresh water and the outdoors.
“We are dedicated to practicing sustainability for our planet and providing respectful husbandry for our animals. We produce grain to feed our flocks and use the straw to provide fresh bedding in our barns. In addition, we fertilize our crops with our composted bedding and manure to build the fertility of our soil.” - wintersturkeys.com

DONATE A FEAST
Not everyone will be able to afford a feast this year.
We’ve partnered with Sonshine Community Services to offer a donated Thanksgiving meal to families in need. As the families will need to know in advance if they’ll be receiving the supplies, the deadline for donations is Friday, September 29.
Donate a Feast will feed 4 people and includes: 1 turkey breast, 5 lbs of potatoes, 2 lbs of carrots, 2 lbs of onions and 1 spaghetti squash. The meal will be delivered directly to a family in need.
If this cause resonates with you, you have the option to purchase the Donate a Feast item for $65.
We are thankful for your help!
