Thank you for your Thanksgiving pre-order!
As we get closer to Thanksgiving, we’ll have a variety of additional items available for pre-order, including beef, chicken, pork, eggs, vegetables, and flowers. You can prepay for quick and convenient pickup, or shop in-store when you collect your turkey. We’ll also reach out with details about the order pickup process as the holiday approaches.

FAQ
What is your process for filling turkey orders?
Turkeys and pickup times are offered to customers in the order in which we received your pre-order.
Can I pickup my turkey early?
We do not have any fresh turkeys available before November 25th as they are processed as close to Thanksgiving as possible.
What about vegetables, flowers, eggs, and other meats?
We will have a wide assortment of vegetables and meats available for your feast! Sweet potatoes, potatoes, carrots, greens, fresh herbs and more, as well as fresh flower bouquets and pasture raised eggs. In mid-November we will email you a list of everything we will have available, with the option to pre-order.
What can I expect at pickup?
We will reach out closer to the holiday to coordinate your pickup time with you you. When it is your pickup time and you arrive at the Farmstore, you will be greeted by a Greenacres staff member. They will retrieve your turkey and any other pre-ordered items, and assist you with checkout. We accept cash and credit card. The Farmstore will also be open for in-person shopping, with our full selection of 100% grassfed beef, pastured pork, chicken, eggs, vegetables and flowers. Curbside-only pickup is available, just let a staff member know when you arrive. Please keep in mind this process may change, and we will let you know via email of any changes.
I see feathers on my turkey, is this normal?
The turkey you typically buy at the grocery store has been bred to have white feathers, a genetic trait selected so feathers aren’t as visible after defeathering. These type of selective breeding practices can come at the expense of overall turkey health and flavor. Choosing turkeys with genetic traits closer to their wild ancestors means that our turkeys will have bronze feathers, but are better suited to thrive outdoors and have great flavor. These bronze feathers may occasionally be visible on the turkey you bring home – simply remove before cooking.
Do I need to prepare this turkey any differently because it’s fresh and pasture raised?
Nope! Your turkey will be fresh, so no thawing is necessary. Prepare as you would any other turkey (but it’s going to taste better!). For basic oven roasting, plan on 13 minutes per pound at 350º, until the thickest portion reaches an internal temperature of 165º
What if I need to cancel or change my order?
We do our best to accommodate these situations, but please keep in mind that changes may not be possible. Please get in touch with us so we can find the best solution for you. If you need to cancel, let us know ASAP so we can offer your turkey to another customer, and we will refund your deposit.
