In the early 1900’s, a few Michigan farmers and their families began raising turkeys. They found that the temperate climate and rich land of Allegan, Ottawa, Kent and Barry counties produced a bigger and healthier bird.

As word of these great turkeys spread, more families started raising turkeys on their Michigan farms.

Today, these family farms are still in operation. They have been handed down from generation to generation, and they are continuing to produce better turkeys.

Now, 16 of these farmers have joined together to form Michigan Turkey Producers. We are committed to quality and value from our farms to your table.

So we have set up a second new processing plant to prepare the birds and premium meats for market. This state-of-the-art facility, the most modern turkey processing plant in the nation, enables us to produce value-added, top-quality, fully cooked products.
