Know Your Farms farm tour

We participated again this year in the 2nd Annual Know Your Farms farm tour. We learned a lot last year doing the tour for the first time and hoped that we could make this year even better. In a lot of ways we did just that! This year we has food available for sale that way you could enjoy a WTF hot dog or brat. We also had friends, family and customers volunteer in all aspects that left me free to roam around and answer any questions while Lee was giving tours on the hayride.

The one thing that was lacking (and it was my fault) is that once again I did not get many pictures. So here are the few that I took before anybody was even at the farm.

Wild Turkey Farms News- Oct 8, 2010

Been another busy week around here. Everything (including me) is enjoying the cooler temps. Hopefully the frost will hold off for a while so the grass has a chance to grow some. That hot spell in Sept really put a hurt'n on the fall grazing but we'll make do one way of the other. Turkeys are plugging right along but with all the bad luck this year's supply will be tight. Stay tuned for more details on how to get your name on one.

We will NOT be at the China Grove Farmers Market. Got to make a run to the processor's this afternoon so we'll be restocked on our great tasting pork & beef so unfortunately we'll miss out today.
