Our Christmas turkeys are raised inside warm barns that protect them from our cold and unpredictable Alberta winters. Our barns have windows to let the winter sunshine in and the turkeys are given fresh wood shavings to keep them clean and dry. The turkeys are given lots of room to move around and express their natural behaviours. We provide them with toys to keep them busy and perches they can rest on.

In addition to being able to pre-order a whole turkey, this year we are again offering the option to reserve a fresh turkey breast or a turkey thigh. Our turkey breast is a boneless turkey breast that has the skin on, our turkey thigh is a bone-in, skin-on turkey thigh. These are great options for smaller gatherings.

 

There are three easy ways to order your turkey:

•Online through our website https://sunworksfarm.com/collections/turkey Please note that when ordering online you will receive a confirmation email that has an automatically generated pickup date for the week after you place your order. Please ignore this date as it only applies to other items ordered. The correct date for turkey pickup is listed as part of the turkey product description on your confirmation email.

•In person at your preferred turkey pickup location (see list below)
