Several local Birmingham school students recently had a new experience when "Tom" Turkey form the Bowers School Farm in Bloomfield Township recently visited Beverly Elementary School. Students in kindergarten through fourth grade had the opportunity to pet the turkey and learn a little more about the animal while learning about Thanksgiving traditions.
