The company website describes a New Jersey Shore family owned and operated farm enterprise raising all-natural turkeys since 1938, spanning farm production of turkeys, a USDA processing plant, and a retail food market and restaurant used to direct market the products. The site states the farm and plant operation is located in Glendola (Wall Township), New Jersey, where up to 10,000 free range turkeys are raised and processed annually, while the federal record lists the establishment address in Neptune. The website's find us listing gives a retail location at 1414 Atlantic Avenue, Manasquan, New Jersey.

Per the website history, founder Richard Hinck, a second-generation poultry farmer, moved from a retail egg business into fresh ready-to-cook turkeys in May 1938, then added cooked turkey and convenience items. A retail store opened in a rented diner in Neptune in 1955, a second store opened in Wall Township in 1968, and the Neptune store was vacated in 1977 for a larger building in Ocean Township. The site says the operation is backed by four generations of experience and more than 85 years of family ownership.

The federal record shows Hinck Turkey Farm Inc reports custom-exempt processing alongside its inspected poultry slaughter and processing activities, and the FSIS slaughter volume category is 2.0. The website describes the plant as processing turkeys raised on the farm itself, up to 10,000 free range birds annually, for sale through the company's own retail market. Nothing in the sources on file states whether the plant takes in animals from outside growers, and no booking process, minimums, fees, or cut and wrap terms are stated. A farmer considering hauling birds here would need to contact the plant directly at (732) 223-5622 to confirm availability.

Hinck Turkey Farm Inc reports custom-exempt processing to FSIS, which means it can process an animal a customer already owns (a whole, half, or share bought before slaughter) and return it in packages marked Not for Sale. Most small farms have one or two plants they book with, and the plant's calendar decides the delivery date.

The website describes a retail food market and restaurant through which the family directly markets its products, including fresh oven ready and cooked turkey, convenience items such as turkey salad, soups, potpies, croquettes and turkey burgers, plus sandwiches, dinners, deli salads, sides, baked goods and desserts. The site lists a find us address at 1414 Atlantic Avenue, Manasquan, New Jersey, along with a take out menu and third party delivery through DoorDash, Grubhub and Uber Eats. Catering for holidays, barbecues, tailgating, corporate events, parties and special events is also listed. Prices, shipping, and whole or half bird sale terms are not stated in the sources on file.

If you are buying a half or quarter animal, the plant is where the animal is processed; the farm sells you the animal. Read how to buy a half cow for the sequence and the math.
