Father & Son Awarded

Rupert Chalmers was a founder of the British Turkey Federation in 1951 and a pioneer of the British Turkey Industry. In 1977, after his death, the Rupert Chalmers Award was created for “Outstanding contribution and commitment to the turkey industry over a significant period.” My father Derek Kelly, received the award in 1995, and myself in 2007. We are the only father and son to be given this award.

Free-range KellyBronze turkeys are “the Rolls-Royce of turkey”, says The Times. Each bird is grown to full maturity, wild in woodlands through three seasons until dry plucked and hung and prepared for easy delivery or pick-up from our farms.

The Daily Telegraph proclaims the KellyBronze turkeys to be “The Sought-after turkey” for Christmas, or indeed any meal where excellence and flavour come top of the list. Non organic, home grown and natural, woodland reared KellyBronze are sought after the world over.

The Financial Times says the KellyBronze has “superior quality” which comes down to the care put into each KellyBronze bird. Naturally bred, free-roaming, dry-aged and home-grown, each bird is a winner. A true feast for any special celebration.
