Can I buy grass-fed beef from local supermarkets?
Local supermarkets will be hit and miss, but most Whole Foods stores carry grass-fed and/or organic beef. Also look for farmers’ markets because rural farmers often will drive over an hour to reach more suburban areas where there are a lot of potential customers. The best online directory to find a grass-fed grower would be EatWild.com. Search there and you might be surprised to find a local grower. Lastly, consider searching Google. Many grass-fed growers are very web-savvy and will appear in search rankings (ie search Yahoo for “Idaho Beef” and you’ll find BradysBeef.com, which is a small grower in a very rural area).
