Why Buy Local?

Supporting Local Farmers

By buying local, you’re directly supporting your community’s family farms. Your purchase helps them maintain their livelihoods and continue producing high-quality, nutritious food.

Reducing Food Miles

Buying local meat reduces the distance they need to travel to reach your table, minimizing cost of transportation. This helps to reduce our dependence on large-scale, industrial agriculture and promotes a more stable food system.

Freshness Guaranteed

When you buy meat from a local farmer, you can be confident that it is fresh and has not been sitting in warehouses for extended periods.

The Challenges Facing

Local Meat Producers

  • Despite the numerous benefits of locally raised meats, local farmers often face challenges in bringing their products to market. It shouldn’t be difficult to find wagyu burger, wagyu ribeye, or a wagyu tomahawk steak from a reputable source!
  • Regulatory Hurdles: Recent legislation has made it more difficult for small-scale meat producers to sell directly to consumers. These regulations can increase costs and create barriers to entry for local farmers.

  • Competition from Large Corporations: The dominance of large food corporations can make it challenging for local farmers to compete on price and distribution.
