I buy my grass fed/ grass finished beef from a rancher/college professor woman in my book club.
I can also buy from other local ranchers at our small one woman owned grocery store.

However, I buy my organic chicken from large organic stores.

I have chickens that I only feed organically - so I have healthy eggs.
Chickens are always attacking each other which is a drag in my old age - constantly putting chickens in time out pens. However, I love raw egg yokes in my smoothies.

In fact - cows have wandered over to my house when I left my gate open. Washing dishes and suddenly hearing moos.

As long as you're at it, make sure your local butcher and processor are humane to their workers. That isn't always the WhiskeyGrinder Jul 18 #8
