South Powrie Farm's Turkeys

We rear free range, premium bronze turkeys in the old fashioned way on our family farm in Angus to give you the very best tasting turkey at Christmas. Our turkeys are slow grown to full maturity, reared in the outdoors, and dry-plucked and game hung to develop their award-winning flavour and texture.
They are really easy and quick to cook, on average roasting in 2-3 hours.


At Christmas time we welcome you to the farm to collect your turkey and enjoy a hot chocolate. You can also stock up on farm fresh vegetables, locally-made Christmas puddings and cakes and other treats. It's become a Christmas tradition for many of our customers, which means alot to us.






Why Buy A Turkey From Us?


 

We love good food, we love turkey and we love Christmas! We have been rearing this multi award-winning, free range bronze turkey for the foodies of Angus, Dundee, Fife, Perthshire, south Kincardineshire and Edinburgh since 2011.

We are one of only a few hand selected farmers to rear this signature bird, loved by the likes of Delia Smith and Nigella Lawson for its wonderful texture and flavour, as well as its very quick and easy cooking.


We believe in quality, high welfare and low food miles. Some of our turkeys have gone to ski resorts in Austria or on a train to Cornwall, but that's the furthest they've travelled!



A traditional way of doing things 


Rearing the turkeys on our own farm means we know that everything has been done to a standard we are proud of, and our customers have come to recognise the quality of the products, but also the importance of the high welfare of our flock with the freedom to roam and growing slowly with the natural rhythm of the year.







Fresh Air and Foraging


Our bronze turkeys roam freely in the farm paddock, and are slow-grown to full maturity on a natural diet of cereals and foraging on grass, nettles and fallen fruit. We bring them into an airy shelter at night where they can roost on bales and keep cosy.




Slow to Grow, Quick to Cook

We know how important Christmas is and we want you to have a turkey worth talking about on your Christmas table.

Maturity has the biggest single impact on flavour. The more mature the bird, the better the flavour. Our turkeys are grown to over twice the age of a 'standard' turkey, which doubles the cost of producing it but quadruples the flavour.  Game hung, they have a well marbled meat, which means it tastes like the good old fashioned turkeys we remember of old.

The combination of rearing them slowly and naturally, dry plucking and game hanging, give the birds the superb flavour and texture which makes them so famously good.

Being grown to full maturity, also means a South Powrie turkey cooks really quickly - on average between 2-3 hours - with no need for basting or making gravy, as there are plenty of natural juices.






Oven Ready, Direct From the Farmer


At Christmas time, you can collect your bronze turkey direct from our festive shed at the farm or from one of our other collection points in Fife, Edinburgh, Kincardineshire, Perthshire or Angus. As well as whole turkeys, we sell turkey crowns, breast roasts and 'a bit of both' joint boxes.


Your turkey comes beautifully presented and completely oven-ready with a meat thermometer and full cooking instructions. A South Powrie Christmas is an easy Christmas! 




Other Local Produce

On our website, you can also pre-order gammons, Christmas puddings and cakes from other local producers to collect with your turkey.

If you are coming to collect at the farm on 22 & 24 December, you can pre-order chipolatas, stuffing and bacon, and we have a pop-up shop with freshly picked veg, homemade jams, local beers, cheese, oatcakes, venison and other essentials for your Christmas table.
