Tewes Poultry Farm started with John Tewes (Second from the top right) on what is now Charter Oak in Edgewood, KY. At the time, he focused on hatching and raising chickens.
In March of 1944, he moved his family to Erlanger, where the farm is located today. As his family grew larger (17 children to be exact), he expanded his sales to the community. He prided himself on providing fresh eggs, chickens, and turkeys.
It has been a landmark ever since. It is the only Fresh Poultry producer in Northern Kentucky. People come from miles around to pick up a fresh turkey for the holidays.
Many customers have said "Once you try a fresh turkey, you'll never go frozen again."
Dan Tewes (the 13th child), his wife, Darlene, and their family currently run the farm. The extended family comes back to help at the holidays. The Tewes family sells about 3,000 free range turkeys (ready to be cooked) in November and December
