T.A. Farms grows an all-white
hybrid FREE RANGE turkey that is ALL NATURAL. The birds receive
no growth stimulants, no medication and are raised with the ability
to enter and leave their building at any time. T.A. Farms, LLC
also makes their own feed containing no growth hormones and all
natural ingredients. This allows T.A. Farms,LLC to raise and sell
a quality product.
Thirty years ago the Palmer family started a new venture—raising
turkeys. We started with 50 turkeys and the business has continued
to grow. We currently raise 3,500 turkeys still mainly holiday
turkeys for Thanksgiving and Christmas. We have added turkey breast,
legs and thighs sold separately, ground turkey in one pound packages
and turkey sausage in one pound packages. The turkey sausage and
ground turkey products are available year round.
