Some of the best opportunities to enjoy naturally, grass fed, organically raised protein is to order from a small farmer or rancher in the U.S. You pay a premium over feed lot raised meat you purchase in the market but there are several advantages.
The meat does not contain hormones or anti-biotics, the animals are humanely raised, and the land is treated with sustainable farming.
The one area that discourages many consumers is the shipping costs. There are economies of scale. Generally ordering under 10 pounds is not worthwhile. Many producers give incentives for certain dollar volume. And then there are often specials. It makes sense that ordering close to your residence costs less to ship. Most orders are at least two day ground.
Find the meat you like, the producer close to you, the economical size order and enjoy, enjoy.
