Timmerman’s turkey farm in LaFargeville
Timmerman’s turkey farm was the largest–and last big turkey producer–in Northern New York. It went of business in the early 1980s. On the right, you can see the barn where baby turkeys were raised until they were old enough to be put outside. Circa 1950. Unknown workers. LaFargeville, NY.
