Last Christmas Higgins switched Christmas turkey stockists to John Howe, a much respected family farm in Kent.
“ We made the decision so we could offer our customers top quality turkeys at a lower price.” says Butcher Dave Butler. “ But, better still, the bigger the bird the less you pay per kg. We like the way John Howe’s farm is run and how the birds are reared. We had great
feedback from customers, they were very happy. ”
The farm rears white & bronze free range turkeys (bronze has a richer gamier taste).
“ Our turkeys are slow growing, old fashioned breeds fed on a natural, cereal based diet” says John.
Each turkey comes with a spring detector (pops up when temperature reached) plus a free recipe booklet with leftover ideas.
Turkey orders currently being taken at Higgins, Lower Road, WD3 5LQ, 01923 282184
