Uh oh, loca-omnivores. The Washington Post is reporting a turkey shortage in Maryland. In a way, this is good news because it verifies residents interest in supporting local farmers. But on the other hand, for those of you who have not yet started gathering the goods for your feast, it could lead to a side dish of feedlot remorse.
Act fast and you may still be able to procure a Maryland turkey via Maryland's Best. And keep in mind, you could always off-set the footprint of your chosen meat by serving up produce from a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), most of which still have winter shares available.
For more suggestions on the meat of your feast, read last year's eco-Thanksgiving tips in Turkey, Tofu or Pheasant?

Wow! Looks like we need to go to the store then :)
Noooo!! We will just have to eat kale, chard, spinach and radish and sleep well at night knowing no turkeys are on death row right now bc of us ;-)
If I were a turkey I'd be in shortage too about now. Try looking behind the barn!
