Wow, we can't believe that we will be rounding up the turkeys this weekend. It seems not too long ago we started adding them to the wooded pastures to only have them fly out and hang out in the yard. We have had turkeys on the trucks, turkeys on the clothes line, turkeys on the roof and even turkeys on the TV antenna. While the farmer's wife complains about them and their mess, she will miss their sounds on the roof the most. (If you listen closely it sounds like Santa's reindeer.)
Round Up will be taking place this Sunday and the farmer's wife has thought about selling tickets for people to come watch as it will surely prove to be very comical to watch. The farmer could use any extra help so if you are free and want to help please give him a call.
The turkeys will be taken to the processor on Monday. We have scheduled two pick up times: Novmeber 19th at Whipowill Hill Farm from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM and then November 20th at the Asheboro Farmer's Market from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM. These turkeys will be FRESH (not frozen). How many have ever had a turkey that has been that fresh?
The response to these turkeys has been wonderful. We have some big plans for next year and hope we can accommodate all the request we have had. We do apologize to those of you who were unable to place an order this year.
For Christmas Whipowill Hill Farm will be offering pheasants. There are only a few left and if you are interested in those please call us right away.
