Hayter’s Family Farm:
A Legacy of Fresh and Wholesome
The Hayter family has been in the turkey farming business for three generations, and they are extremely passionate about delivering sustainable, wholesome, and humanely raised turkey.
The farm is in Dashwood, Ontario where the birds enjoy an open-air barn and the fresh breeze of the season. The care and quality that they have achieved is unmatched and we are truly honoured to call them our foodie partners!
Hayter’s turkey is free of hormones or steroids and the hands-on approach that this farm undertakes is truly inspiring. Their constantly evolving product line is where tradition meets innovation. Products like Tandoori Turkey Breast and Cranberry & Spinach Burgers are just a couple of examples of the wide array of items they offer. From raising to processing their own products on-site, they are the only farm in Canada that oversees the entire process. This not only ensures quality, but also the sustainability of our environment by reducing waste and emissions.
Turkey is a lean meat that absorbs flavours and seasonings incredibly well. When we think about how to use this protein, we imagine Thanksgiving dinners and the traditional fixings and sides.
Though delicious and wonderful, there is so much MORE that we can do with it! From butter turkey curry to barbecued legs on the grill, don’t be afraid to let your creativity run wild. Incorporate this meat into your weekly menus and add this wholesome option to the protein roster.
On your next visit to the butcher shop, pick up some tasty burgers, kebobs, or pre-seasoned breast and get ready to “gobble down” on some scrumptious turkey.
