Those sites are both linked to off our Real Food Resources page and are phenomenal directories. I buy a side of cattle every spring from a local rancher, and I couldn't be more pleased. (I'm in Texas, BTW, or I'd be very interested in placing an order with you.) Thanks, Chris, for the info.

Also go to LocalHarvest.org as another source to find local farms and ranches. For those of you in California, I work for Chaffin Family Orchards and we produce grassfed beef, lamb, goat, pastured chicken, and eggs. I have worked on quite a few cattle ranches both grassfed and organic and the beef here is by far the best I have ever tasted. It's dry aged and well marbled. Its very tender and flavorful, no sharp grassy or gamey flavors. We don't rush finishing times, we have a strong dedication to working within nature's cycles and not rushing the process. Our native grasses are very mild and produce very mild flavored meats. We are also certified Predator Friendly which means we don't hunt or trap any of the wild coyotes, bear, mountain lions, or bobcats that reside on our ranch. We want them there to keep the ecosystem that supports our farm and ranch alive and strong.
