Adopt the Flock

The Flock

Having a hard time deciding who to adopt? Adopt The Flock! Each member of our turkey flock has their own personality. Serena, sweet and fun, is a bold leader. Thelma is kind and always up for a snuggle. Freyja is shy and gentle, our thoughtful introvert. Ferris was confident and charming, always after the spotlight. Despite their differences, they are each a cherished member of our Farm Sanctuary family—and ambassadors for the 46 million turkeys lost to the Thanksgiving holiday.

Each Farm Sanctuary Adopt a Turkey sponsors receives:

• A beautiful adoption certificate—your choice of digital or print—featuring a photo and details about your adopted turkey.
• The chance to choose an adoption in honor of someone special in your life.
• Our deepest thanks for supporting our rescue, education, and advocacy work on behalf of turkeys and other farm animals.

PLEASE NOTE:

• All donors will receive one digital certificate (in both PDF and JPG formats) for the turkey(s) they adopt, along with graphics and a video to share on social media.
• Digital certificates are sent via email overnight on the day your order is placed.
• Print certificates are sent via USPS First Class Mail and are not trackable.
  • You will receive the print version by mail and the digital version via email.
  • Please allow 10 business days for mail delivery. They are mailed separately from all other shop items.

    • If you need to send adoption certificates to multiple addresses, please submit separate orders.
    • Your billing information can be saved by creating an account with us during checkout or by going to our Registration Page.

About Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt a Turkey Project

Each year, the United States slaughters 46 million turkeys for Thanksgiving. Most live in severe crowding and confinement on factory farms and endure painful mutilations, including debeaking and toe removal without anesthesia. These living, feeling individuals deserve so much better.

Since 1986, Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt a Turkey Project has encouraged people to symbolically adopt a turkey at Thanksgiving instead of eating one. By highlighting the unique personalities and intelligence of turkeys—while also revealing the abuse they face in an exploitative food system—this beloved campaign has reached millions of people with a message of compassion. With a contribution today, you can symbolically adopt a rescued turkey living at Farm Sanctuary— or maximize your impact by sponsoring this year’s featured flock of four.

This year, we’re introducing The Besties package! Adopt Serena and Thelma turkey as a pair and you’ll help to support this pair of feathered friends for just $55. Choose a gift adoption and we’ll email a certificate to the bestie of your choosing to show them you care.
