What sets us apart
Did you know?
Unlike mass produced turkey, the Shropshire Bronze is plucked and prepared by hand without the use of hot water. This intensive wet-processing method used for other turkeys can foster the growth of bacteria which is why it is not recommended to eat it pink. Yet the dry preparation of a Shropshire Bronze which is done by hand, means that the meat is perfectly safe to eat pink - as you might with beef or lamb.

The family behind it
David and Sam Cartwright
Our family has farmed at Condover since the 1930s, and we have reared turkeys here since 1996. The last fortnight before Christmas is a team effort.
Most customers collect their turkey from us in person. We like that. It means we meet the people who will be eating something we have spent months producing.
We hope that collecting a Shropshire Bronze turkey becomes just as much a Christmas tradition for our customers as producing them is for us.

What customers say
I just wanted to thank you for the best turkey we have ever had - the smell and taste were wonderful, served hot or cold! I was also very surprised how little time it took to cook - brilliant! I shall be visiting you again next year. Thank you also for the courteous and helpful way you took my order.
It was a last minute decision to have a turkey from you this year, and what a great decision it was. It made our family’s Christmas. It was so nice to have a turkey that had real flavour and was not dry. Keep up the good work and we will see you next year and we will have a larger bird!
Just a quick note to thank you for being so helpful and providing us with a truly gorgeous turkey. I can honestly say we had forgotten what proper turkey tastes like. The cooking instructions and meat thermometre were so useful and made the cooking easier as I am not the best cook. See you next year!
My family all insisted I wrote a letter to you to thank you for the beautiful turkey we had from you this Christmas. It was the best we have ever had. As you said, it did melt in our mouths. Well done!!
Thank you very much for the gorgeous turkey. We cooked the turkey as you suggested and couldn’t believe how well it worked. It was lovely. We will be back next year.
Beautiful turkey, beautiful presentation! Well done!
