Oddbean new post about login | logout Excited to have set-up a "working ranch" visit with my family to a beef producer about 2 hours from our home. We'll be visiting for a few hours and buying beef from them directly, as well. Consensus shows the "town" has a population of 10. 👀😎🔥 "Shake a ranchers' hand." It's past time to get familiar with where your food comes from. #beefinitiative #beef #farmtotable
People in Utah (and expanding) are creating an app for connecting people directly to ranchers and farmers. It's called the "Crofter" app and can be found at this website. SaveTheRanchers.com
I used the Beef Initiative site and have connected with a ranch in Wyoming. I also used it to find Canyon Meadows Ranches, and we paid an impromptu visit to one in Morgan. Thanks for that info, though, I'll check it out.
Did you use the beef initiative website to find them?
yessir
I found a few on that website I’m planning on reaching out to. The first one hasn’t responded but I’ll try the next
I know you can have the meat shipped but I prefer buying in person like you did even if it’s a 2 or 3 hour drive
Another local producer I found thru the Beef Initiative does local delivery 1 day a week at a nearby gas station. It doesn't line up well with my schedule, unfortunately, so we don't do it often. Was certainly a very cool experience, though.
