I'm Hannah Moss
Hi, I’m Hannah Moss
I have been a vegetarian since the age of 12.
We have had poultry for over 10 years and have built a wealth of knowledge in this time.
I have a real genuine passion for animal welfare.
Family Run Business
We are a family run Newbury business specialising in producing quality free to roam, rare British Slate turkeys for Christmas.
Lee Moss (my Husband) is a holder of a slaughter license and therefore we are able to put the final moments of the turkey’s life in his hands knowing that he truly understands my ethics.
Resulting in us having control over the animal welfare throughout the turkey’s whole life.
Rare Breed Survival Trust and the Turkey Club
We have spent time with the Rare Breed Survival Trust and the Turkey Club to discuss how to increase the categorised Critically Rare, Slate Turkey numbers here in the UK. Both organisations suggest introducing them to the food chain significantly increases awareness and therefore demand for the rare animal.
Animal Welfare
Our turkeys are hatched from home. Are able to roam freely during the day (free range) and safely secured at night to stop predators. Allowing them to eat a verity of natural foods, build natural muscle tone and behavior, as a turkey in the wild should. Creating a more intense flavour and succulent texture
Natural Turkey Farming
Natural turkey farming is seasonal, the hens only lay typically from mid-March to the end of June.
This is not intense or all year farming and therefore enables us to have downtime as we still have a young family to take care of.
