Welcome to our third-generation farm.

Ferndale Market

We treat our turkeys like they’re part of the family.
Because since 1939, they have been.

We treat our turkeys like they’re part of the family. Because since 1939, they have been.

When our founder Dale Peterson and his wife Fern began raising turkeys on our family farm in Cannon Falls, they did it the only way they knew how – without shortcuts. Eighty years later, that philosophy hasn’t changed.

"We’ve had a good run of media attention around our turkey bratwurst lately. Trust me, when I envisioned my role many years ago, I never imagined grilling brats on live TV. Then again, I didn’t envision we’d someday craft a lineup of turkey bratwurst.⁠ ⁠ I’ve seen some funny things behind the curtain as I’ve burned up my 15 minutes of fame. There was the time the meteorologist got oozed with melted Swiss cheese from a healthy bite into our Rachael Bratwurst, or the time when the camera man inadvertently stumbled backward into the garden pond, seconds before going live into our spot. Much like turkey farming, it appears most professions are about bouncing back quickly from surprises.⁠ ⁠ I suspect our turkey brats earn media attention because they’re a distinctive item. There aren’t many good, clean turkey versions on the shelf, which is why some longtime customers encouraged us to make our own. Pair that with the Minnesota flavors and local partnerships we crafted, and you’ve got a good story to tell..."⁠ ⁠ Visit the link in our bio to read the rest of John's From Your Farmer.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #knowyourfarmer #turkeybratwurst #summergrilling #freerangeturkey⁠ ⁠
