Having spent the last 5 years refining pastured Turkeys in an Irish context at Heather Hill Farm, we have designed this training with all the success and failures woven in, to give you a very realistic view of what is involved when it comes to time required, investment required, benefits to the soil and your land & the profitability of this enterprise.
Training runs July 8th from 9am-4pm, there will be a farm tour and lunch provided as well as tea and coffee throughout the day. The training is split between classroom and hands on, so bring materials for taking notes as well as boots and wet gear in case of poor weather.
