Last year at this time, I wrote about Mary’s Turkeys. So, this year, I’m doing it again. Mary’s Turkeys, particularly their Heritage turkeys, are amazing. Here’s what Mary’s has to say about these birds:

[T]heir superior taste is a result of being raised with plenty of open space in a healthy and caring environment and fed only a diet high in protein. The combination of their diet and the exercise opportunity that they have produce a lean and tasty turkey. You won’t find any antibiotics, animal by-products, preservatives or hormones in a Mary’s Free-Range Heritage Turkey. The Heritage Turkeys preserve the mouth-watering taste of turkey that was destined to be lost forever. Simply put, the Heritage Turkey is the best, most flavorful, tender, juicy and moist turkey you will ever taste!


Um, what they said. We had one of these last year, and they’re DELICIOUS. Plus, you’ll know that you’re supporting a family producer of birds whose genes go way back to our country’s founders, and even before then to the Native Americans who ate these birds. You can’t get any more authentic than Mary’s Heritage turkeys.

I”ll be posting a video of the Mary’s family and their farm later. I posted the same video last year, but it got lost somewhere, sadly… So keep an eye out for the video. It shows you the real difference between a Mary’s Turkey and any other turkey: producers who care about the food they produce as much as they care about their customers.
