Thanks to ongoing supply chain issues due to the pandemic, inflation, and bouts of Avian influenza, the frozen turkey market will more than likely come up short. Customers may see this as an opportunity to get fancy and try one of the local farms known for their fresh turkey offerings. But if you haven’t already pre-ordered for Thanksgiving Day, you may just be out of luck soon.

Greenacres in Indian Hill has already reached its pre-order capacity for the season and is wait listing customers while Tewes Farm in Erlanger is taking every opportunity to tell customers to order as soon as possible.

“We are raising the same amount as usual but expect the demand to be greater if the stores don’t get as many,” says Stephanie Tewes of Tewes Farm. “We encourage people to order early in case we need to cut off orders prior to the holiday.”
