British turkey farmers from across the UK are coming together to celebrate Drovers Day by reviving the historic tradition of walking turkeys through village streets, marking 500 years since turkeys first arrived in Britain. Once a familiar sight as flocks were driven on foot to markets across the country, turkey droving played an important role in rural life and the nation’s food heritage. Drovers Day will showcase the dedication of today’s turkey farmers, celebrate centuries of farming tradition, and highlight the important role British turkeys continue to play in festive celebrations.
