Oegema Turkey Farms is a third generation family farm, started in 1958. Successive generations have contributed years of experience, and education in business and agriculture to develop the operation. Presently we grow approximately 55,000 turkeys per year. Our commitment to raising the best bird possible requires many hours in the barns caring for our flocks.In 1992, we started The Turkey Shoppe, offering turkey products to consumers direct from the farm. Originally there was one employee and the store was open three days a week. Over the years the business and product line has grown to the point where we are now open six days a week with 6 full and part time employees.Our wind generator, installed in 2006, provides green energy for the farm. It is a refurbished unit from the Netherlands and can produce up to 80kW/hr on a windy day. On average, it supplies 25% of our electricity. more... See more text
