Organic means the animals are not treated with antibiotics, growth hormone, etc. nor fed pesticides laced foods. But they are still grain-fed to fatten them up. As we know grain is a foreign food for cows who are herbivores and have 5 stomachs to break down grass, hay, etc. Grains damage their health. And they are often fed soy, which I'm allergic to. But the meat is still better than what is in the supermarket. I buy certified organic pasture-fed meats from a farmer. Weston A Price has a section where you can contact people in your area for sources of meats, etc. It is under " Get Involved " on the left-hand sidebar; go to: http://www.westonaprice.org/local_chapters/local_chapters.html That's how I contacted my farmer. They have Dexter Cows, Bronze Turkeys, Free-Range Chickens & Eggs, and Bison. Cheers, Bee > Oops, eh. But at least I said it was good.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Dear Sheryl, You are so welcome. VERY VERY WELL DONE! Way to go girl. I just got a brochure and invitation from my farmer today. They have a bar-b-que every summer and invite all of their customers - of course we are sampling all of their meats! Yummmmyyyy! They are now making a special sausage. The bar-b-que is free, hosted by them. We get a tour of their farm and a health talk about certified organic pasture-fed and free-range meats. It's great fun! And you also meet people who think alike! Bee > > Oops, eh. But at least I said it was good.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Wow Bee that is really cool. I would love to be able to tour a farm where I was getting my meat. You'll have to let us know how it is.
