The reason that North Andover has the nickname Turkey Town is not known, although there are several explanations for the designation:

  1. 1 There were many turkey farms in North Andover
  2. 2 Wild turkeys were once plentiful in North Andover. (Wild turkeys were reintroduced in 1972. They had disappeared before then.)
  3. 3 While transporting a shipment of turkeys on Main Street, the turkeys go loose and were seen running through the downtown area.
