Bailey's Buying Club - Local Pasture-Raised Turkey and Chicken

Hi Neighbours,

If you've ordered turkey or chicken already and are happy with your
order - you can ignore this order form.
If you haven't ordered yet, here is your chance.

Here is the handy form for ordering Turkey and Chicken.
Even if you're not ready to fill your freezer with local chicken and
turkey, consider trying one of each so that you can compare it to your
other chicken. As I said before, I'm convinced that pasture-raised
poultry is the best. Best tasting, best for the environment, most
healthy. The more poultry we can feed on pasture and less on
corn/grain, the better. Not only are grain prices rising as we see in
the newspapers, but the Omnivour's Dilemma pointed out that almost
everything we eat now is from corn or corn fed animals (milk, eggs,
chicken, beef, soft drinks, etc...) Anyway, all I'm suggesting is that
you try a taste test. I'd like to hear your feedback.

If you're looking for super convenience check out the turkey breast
(use in any recipe that calls for chicken breast, of course) and the
chicken parts (easy on the grill).

Cooking tip: 3 easy meals from one chicken. 1. Put a frozen chicken in
the crockpot or roaster in the oven with carrots and potatoes. When
ready, serve it to your family (and hope they don't eat the whole
chicken). 2. After supper remove the rest of the meat from the bones
and boil the bones for an hour. Put the meat in the fridge and the
broth in the freezer. Use the meat and leftover potatoes and carrots
to make a stew for the next meal. 3. Take out the broth and use it as
a base for a simple brothy soup with whatever is in season thrown in
(my kids love brothy soups).
