Here’s Why Corey Feldman Adopts a Turkey Every Year

Corey Feldman loves turkeys!

Each year, he chooses to celebrate a compassionate Thanksgiving by adopting a turkey with Farm Sanctuary—rather than eating one of these living and feeling birds. 

Here’s why this actor and advocate joins our Adopt a Turkey Project each holiday season…in his own words!

“Did you know that turkeys are loving, compassionate creatures?” says Corey Feldman. “I learned this when I went to Farm Sanctuary the very first time, 18 years ago.”

Coming to Farm Sanctuary allowed Corey to get to know turkeys in a way he had never before. He learned that they care about each other, many like to be pet, and that these empathetic birds will welcome a new turkey by adopting them into their own flock. 

“You can be as compassionate as a turkey, can’t you? I believe you can!” says Corey. “All you have to do is join the Adopt a Turkey program by making a small donation.”

There’s still time to sponsor a rescued turkey this holiday season! Tens of millions of turkeys are killed for Thanksgiving, but you can be part of a kinder holiday tradition.

“You can be a turkey hero, too,” says Corey. Thank you for considering joining him in honoring, not harming, turkeys this year!
