Gobble! Gobble!

I had Thanksgiving dinner planned months ago. Earlier this year I ordered a heritage breed turkey from Courtney and Jacob Cowgill at Prairie Heritage Farm in Conrad. They raised 75 birds this spring for their Thanksgiving CSA members, and for direct sales. All year long the birds ate whatever came their way, more like the wild ones, and lived the good life outside of a caged existence. Last Friday and Saturday they met their fates, and I picked up a fresh turkey from Courtney on Saturday.
