Health conscious Connecticans have a lot to be thankful for when prepping for a Holiday feast. Cedar Meadow Farm is a small, family-run farm in Southeastern CT that provides pasture raised turkey, as well as other heritage-bred meats.
A trip to the farm can become a new holiday tradition, or even a regular outing. Hurricane Farm in Scotland, CT has something for locals any time of the year, including maple syrup, flavored vinegars, goat’s milk, free range eggs, and even the firewood to warm your home’s hearth this Thanksgiving.
Ocean Spray has a handy tool that helps you choose your turkey’s size based on the number of dinner guests you’re expecting. Use this to plan your whole meal– although the dessert serving chart doesn’t take second helpings into account!
No matter where you live, localharvest.org can direct you to the best local, family owned, small-scale businesses. Or, you can even purchase an organic turkey on Amazon.com.
If you would like more in depth information about turkey and farming practices, Sustainable Table is a wonderful resource.
