The 2024 Turkey Sale is just around the corner, and we're gearing up for the big day! Every fall, our club offers fresh, dressed turkeys as our main fundraiser. This year, we’re aiming for turkeys in the 16-19 pound range, giving you plenty of options to choose from. As with last year, you’ll pre-order your turkeys and pick them up on Sunday, November 24, 2024. Pickup will be at the Penn State Poultry Education & Research Center, University Park. We’ve made ordering easy with an online pre-order form, which goes live on October 11, 2024, at noon. After submitting your form, you’ll receive a confirmation within 48 hours. So mark your calendars and get ready to enjoy some delicious turkey!
The sale is now closed! If you ordered a turkey, please watch for an email with instructions to select a pickup time on Sunday, November 24, 2024. Thank you for your support!
Turkeys will be available for purchase starting October 11, 2024, at noon. Once we’ve sold out, a waitlist will be created. To reserve your spot, simply use the link below.

This year, our turkeys will range from 16 to 19 pounds.

It's a first-come, first-served deal, and each person can only order one turkey. The pre-order form link above will go live on October 11, 2024 at noon. Orders will be processed in the order they're received, and once we sell out, a waiting list will be created. We'll notify you when your order is confirmed or if you're placed on the waiting list. Last year, some people didn't pick up their turkeys and the waiting list helped us sell those extras.
-
Pricing is straightforward. All Grade #1 turkeys will cost $40 each, while Grade #2 turkeys (we have very few) will be $35 each.
- If you've successfully pre-ordered, you can pick up your turkey on the designated date in 30-minute time blocks. Since parking and space are limited, this arrangement helps things run smoothly. Waiting list turkeys will also be called if we have cancellations on the pick-up day. Just drive up, show your confirmation email and get your turkey at the time we've emailed you. If you need to change your pick-up time, please get in touch with us. Keep in mind, though, that this sale coincides with the university's fall break, and student housing closes, making it difficult to distribute birds beyond Sunday. Pickup will be at the Penn State Poultry Education & Research Center, University Park.
- If you can't pick up your turkey within two hours of your designated time, we'll offer it to someone on the waiting list. We'll start contacting people on the waiting list if there are cancellations or at the end of pick-up time on Sunday at 3:00 pm. We'll also notify everyone on the waiting list by email once all the turkeys are sold.
