Free Range Bronze Turkeys
Argae Cottage Turkeys are reared free-range on our smallholding, on the banks of the River Severn. Bronze turkeys are a traditional, slow growing breed, renowned for their superb flavour.
Our turkeys are raised to high welfare standards. During the day, they have freedom to roam over the fields, with places to roost, dust baths, and natural cover. At night they are protected in warm sheds with perches and straw bedding.
Their diet consists of a specially formulated turkey ration, as well as apples from our orchard. They supplement this by grazing and foraging in the fields. (they particularly enjoy picking blackberries from the hedges!)
All preparation is done on the smallholding. Our turkeys are hand plucked and then hung in a chilled room for 7-10 days, to allow the full flavour to develop. The resulting meat is moist, tender, and truly delicious!
Our bronze turkeys cook much faster than a white bird, remaining moist and juicy. We will provide you with full cooking instructions, including calculated cooking times for your bird.
Cooking times also available to download here.
​
Turkeys are sold oven ready, in a presentation box, and will be ready for collection from our smallholding just before Christmas. Home delivery across the UK also available.
​
If you've never tasted a good, free range, old-fashioned turkey, try one of ours this year!
