"Doctor, I feel like a goat”.“How long have you felt like that”?“Since I was a kid”. How do you keep a goat from charging?Take his credit card away! What would Goatober be without a little goat humor? Or HUMOUR, as our British friends would say.

In every family, there is a pride of history and lineage. This is no different for poultry or livestock. Heritage turkeys are the progeny of poultry that was bred for flavor. Norman Kardosh, Frank Reese’s mentor, spent his life teaching Frank how to raise heritage turkeys responsibly. He knew he was leaving his legacy to Frank, and he stressed the importance of pure genetics. Norman said, “If you mess them up it will take fifteen years to straighten out… if it’s even possible.”

His story is the Rosetta Stone of the sustainable agricultural movement. He is a hero in the renaissance of American farming.
