Really looking forward to this Thanksgiving weekend, time with the kids, grandkids and good food.

On the menu is everything grown on our farm including the "heritage" Orlopp Bronze turkey which my wife grew this summer. Should be interesting.

So much for which I am thankful - good health, family and neighbours. Freedom (relative, I know), faith and friends.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Looking foreward to taking the weekend off , shut the phone off , don't watch any news and just relax with kids and family .
Forget about the farm and the outside world for a few days .

Happy Thanksgiving to each and every one of you. A sunshiny day but a freezing nite ahead.

A stuffed bird here, mashed potatoes, carrots, fresh garden corn, gravy, a plum-whipped cream-cocoanut-salad, plum jelly, hot pepper jelly and Canadian wine.
I'm interested if you liked the flavour of the turkey, Burnt. Never tasted one.

I'm thankful the farm community is filled with wonderful hard-working people. Such a joy. Pars

The turkey (Orlopp Bronze) certainly was the most moist and tender we have had - maybe ever.

The white meat was superb, moist, tender and very delicate flavor.

We will be raising them again based on what we had today. These birds were raised "free range" on alfalfa pasture with cracked corn in front of them as well. They were kept within a 4' high portable poultry wire enclosure. Very handy for cleaning up grass and weeds in hard-to-access corners. Great foragers. Interesting to raise.

At 20 weeks they dressed from 20-25 lbs for the hens and 28 and 31 lbs for the two toms.

Highly recommended.

Sounds sinful, burnt. Post on Av if you are growing them next year. I'd love to buy one. You know me and food...... Pars 😁

The foxes clean up any birds we have around here. They come out of the creek and come right up to the farm house and chicken coup and the birds are gone in a flash.

BIG IF it repeats 2016 and we drown out...so far another year planned, less acres.

Thanksgiving should be after remembrance day. (Just a small time 1.5 man operation running old break down prone equipment spread over a 33 mile round trip being bitter. Better than last year though) happy turkey day everyone
