Christmas Special

Guest: Chris Rumming from Lydiard Turkeys

Host: Alex Dye, FarmED’s Public Engagement Coordinator and resident entomologist

Thanks for listening to The FarmED Podcast where you can hear hopeful conversations around farming, food, nature and the environment, brought to you by the FarmED team.

In Episode 1 of this brand new series, Chris Rumming talks to Alex about high welfare turkeys, different breeds (White vs Bronze), game hanging, turkey anecdotes and how farming turkeys has helped Chris to make connections with customers and help them to connect with their purchasing of food through selling direct. Plus, you’ll hear how farming turkeys has given Chris the financial freedom to do environmental work. There’s also some tips on how to decipher turkey ‘chatter’, how to entertain a turkey, and of course some recipe tips for a perfect Christmas turkey roast!
