Fresh Gatherings Café + Farm Sells Holiday Turkeys, Eggs, Pies and More

Fresh Gatherings Café + Farm, operated by the Â鶹´«Ã½ (SLU) Nutrition and Dietetics department, is selling turkeys and other menu items this holiday season. The turkeys are broad-breasted, pasture-raised white turkeys from Buttonwood Farms in California, MO. The turkeys are raised with no growth hormones or antibiotics, are fresh – never frozen – and not removed from pasture for processing until a day before delivery.
