organic turkey

Pasture-raised holiday bird

Organic turkey is turkey raised according to certified organic standards—fed organic feed without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, given no antibiotics or growth hormones, and allowed outdoor access.

The designation appears on packaging and menus to signal farming practices: We're doing an organic turkey this Thanksgiving.

The term applies to both the living bird and the meat.
