With the Thanksgiving Holiday just days away, I'm sure many of you are making plans to prepare your Thanksgiving meal. The typical main dish for the Thanksgiving Holiday is the Turkey. You're probably deciding who will cook the turkey and by what method. Deep fried turkey has become a favorite, as well as, the traditional baking with stuffing. Some first time "turkey cookers" may even have the Butterball 800 phone number on speed dial to get details on how to cook the turkey so that it turns out to be the perfect centerpiece to your meal.

Were you aware that Ozark is one of the homes to a Butterball distribution center. Millions of turkeys have been processed there and packaged to ship out all over the country. It employees hundreds of people around the Ozark and surrounding area. Additionally, turkey farmers around Franklin and surrounding counties work tirelessly to raise these birds to provide these jobs and provide food for millions of people. If you have enjoyed, or plan to enjoy, a Butterball turkey this season, be thankful for these employee's and farmers in the Ozark area.

If you're looking for some fresh vegetables, consider getting in touch with the Franklin County Sheriff's office. They have a garden that is maintained by the prisoners.

Kuddos to the Franklin County Sheriff's office for helping to come up with better solutions!
