Delivery Information
Delivery Information
Delivery day is 22nd/23rd December 2025
Here at the Cumberland Turkey Company, we are lucky enough to be able to offer delivery for just £6.95 throughout Cumbria. All birds are packaged in a protective atmosphere, sealed, and boxed.
Birds will be delivered fresh to your door. Payment can be taken upon delivery or via the website.
Alternative collection can also be arranged — please contact us if needed.
The birds are packed in a protective atmosphere in the box — “the modern way” — so you don’t have to worry about it. You will receive your turkey on the 22nd/23rd of December and should store it somewhere cool and dry.
Turkey Crowns are perfect for those who prefer the lighter, succulent breast meat.
A turkey crown comes from a larger bird with the legs removed, giving you a generous joint of white breast meat on the bone. They’re quick to cook, easy to carve, and can be prepared just like a whole turkey - follow our Turkey Cooking Times for guidance.
Just like our whole turkeys, each crown is individually boxed and comes with vacuum-packed giblets for added convenience.
We offer both Enriched Lifestyle Barn-Reared White Turkey Crowns and Free-Range Bronze Turkey Crowns. Learn more about how our birds are raised on our Enriched Lifestyle and Free-Range Bronze pages.



The Little Things That Make A Big Difference
Free Range
Our birds are free to roam and forage, enjoying a varied diet that includes plenty of apples. This natural approach enhances their flavour, adding depth and richness to every bite, as well as better, more natural muscle development than your standard factory-farmed bird.
All Hen Turkeys
We exclusively raise female turkeys, known for their superior, more succulent meat quality. This guarantees a more tender, succulent, and flavoursome bird for your Christmas feast.
Geese are males and females; if you order a big goose, it’s probably a male.
Male turkeys are sold to Poland as chicks by our supplier. A male turkey is about twice as big as a female and cheaper, making them perfect for larger Polish families on a tighter budget.
Well Fed
Quality food starts with quality feed. We source our poultry feed from a local independent feed merchant and nutritionist, supporting local businesses while ensuring our birds receive the best diet. Combined with natural foraging, this approach results in exceptional taste and texture.
Dry Plucked
Unlike supermarket birds, our turkeys and geese are dry plucked, a traditional technique that preserves the skin, preventing the meat from turning dry in the oven as the moisture can’t escape.
With modern plucking methods, birds are submerged in hot water, meaning they cannot be hung. All our birds are hung, allowing them to mature, enhancing the quality and flavour of the meat. This method of plucking also preserves the skin, giving you the perfect golden finish when cooked—just as a Christmas bird should be.
