Thanksgiving Turkey Harvest II
Sat Nov 23, 2024 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
ROAM Ranch, 78624
Description
ROAM Ranch is home to 400 of the 30,000 heritage breed turkeys in the world - direct descendants of the original wild turkeys of North and South America. Unlike conventional “Butterball” turkeys, which have been genetically manipulated to grow unnaturally large in a confined setting, our heritage breed birds can fly, mate, walk, run and display all of their natural behaviors. The resulting meat is rich, flavorful, and moist. At ROAM Ranch, our turkeys are wild and free, sharing pastures with our herd of over 150 Plains Bison. They get a wide range of nutritious food from grass to grasshoppers.
The ROAM Ranch annual Turkey Harvest Event is timed perfectly to coincide with Thanksgiving. We give families the opportunity to see the environment in which their turkey has been raised and work together to harvest, butcher and prepare their own Thanksgiving bird. Witnessing and participating in this process will give you a sense of connection and satisfaction in knowing your turkey was treated ethically and with care. Attendees will leave with a heritage breed turkey of their choice to cook for an epic Thanksgiving meal.
At ROAM Ranch, we value this connection to our food and the spirit of the animals we raise. Come and join us in celebrating, learning and giving thanks.
The $175.00 covers the cost of your turkey plus harvesting/butchery instruction...and you can bring the whole family!!
