At The Fresh Market, our customers have come to expect the best. Our stores boast superior service and of course, only the best in fresh, premium ingredients. Our All Natural, Fresh Turkeys are:

(Never Fed Animal By-products)
- Humanly Raised
- Never Given Growth Hormones
What's the Difference
No Animal By-Products
Our Turkeys are fed a wholesome vegetarian diet of corn, soybean meal, vitamins, and minerals. Bone meal, meat, or animal fats are never introduced to the feed. The result is a better tasting Turkey. We believe that the combination of vegetarian feed, and a healthy, low stress, growing environment makes our product the best tasting Turkey in America.
Humanely Raised
All of our Turkeys are raised on family farms around New Oxford, PA in the heart of Amish Country. These Turkeys receive 30% more room to roam with considerably more access to food and water than the conventional standard. The animal handling processes that our All Natural Turkeys receive are audited throughout the year to ensure that all associates are properly trained in humane handling practices and treat the birds with the respect they deserve.
No Antibiotics Ever Administered
By creating the proper environment we eliminate the need for overused antibiotics that have been linked to drug resistant bacteria. Unlike conventional turkey farms, every new flock is placed in clean houses with fresh shavings and plenty of room to roam. Our Turkeys receive a nutritious diet and have unlimited access to clean water and fresh air. These practices coupled with the humane care the family farmers provide, prevent the need to administer Antibiotics EVER.
Turkey Roasting Guide
Each turkey comes with its own specially-designed "Pop-Up" timer and cooking instructions to ensure you have a perfectly prepared holiday meal every time. Below is a list of roasting suggestions to ensure you have the perfect holiday meal!
- Confirm the calibration of our oven - an accurate 325°F reading is important for cooking a tender, juicy turkey.
- Opening the oven while your turkey is roasting can create a loss of temperature equal to 15 minutes of roasting.
