Buy a Local Turkey this Thanksgiving

Looking for the perfect turkey for your Thanksgiving meal, or vegetables for sides? Frederick County farms have a lot to offer to your holiday meal. 7 Local farms have been working to grow the most local turkeys you can find for the Holidays.

Local farmers selling Turkeys:

Frederick County leads the state in the number of Turkey farms with 53 farms, bringing over 3 Million dollars in sales to our farm community. Not only is buying local good for the farmer, it also is good for our environment. In Maryland if every household purchased just $12 worth of farm products for eight weeks, over $200 million would be put back into the pockets of our farmers.
