Frozen Pasture-Raised Turkey

Hi, I’m Madelaine from Madelaine’s Eggs, and this is my partner Ben from Wildwood Farm. We live and work on our certified organic family farm situated in the Macedon Ranges, Vic. We believe in ethical practices, animal welfare, and regenerative farming systems. Our passion is to produce high-quality, ethically grown food for people in our community.

What sets our organically raised pasture turkeys apart from others on the market?

Firstly, there are relatively few turkeys raised in Australia, and even fewer that are free-range. Moreover, almost none of these are fed organic feed—making our turkeys truly unique and exceptionally delicious.

Here’s a little bit about our organic turkeys:

From the moment our turkeys hatch, they are nurtured on certified organic feed sourced from small-scale regenerative farms that don’t use chemicals. After a few weeks in the brooder barn, our turkey poults are out on pasture, feasting on green grass in the family farm’s orchard. Our turkeys enjoy foraging, sunbathing, and roaming around the orchard looking for grubs and bugs. We take pride in providing the best environment possible for them.

We don’t raise hundreds of thousands of turkeys at one time in sheds; we have only raised 120 turkeys at a time. We are hoping to slowly build this each year, but it all takes time to spread the word and educate people on the wonderful flavor and high protein content of turkey meat. All our turkeys are processed through the Murray Plains Community Abattoir.

Choosing organic means that no synthetic pesticides, herbicides, GMOs, or chemical fertilizers are used in growing the grains and pasture that nourish our turkeys. By supporting local organic farmers, you are also supporting more sustainable agricultural practices while helping to maintain soil health and biodiversity.

Thank you for reading.
Madelaine and Ben
