So pumped to pick up my half cow tomorrow. Securing high quality food for the family, at a huge discount, and from a local rancher is a win, win, win! #buylocal

Sweet. We source all our food locally as well. Just finished the last of our pork last night so I'm on the hunt for a pig now.

That’s awesome, man. My wife and were just talking this morning about buying our milk locally so we can start making butter, yogurt, ghee, etc. I’ve been reading about subsidiarity for years now, so I figured it’s time to start living it!
Do it! We’ve been getting raw milk locally for about 2 years now. The quality difference is amazing. https://getrawmilk.com
I’ve never gotten a half-cow. Do you get to choose how it’s butchered and how the cuts are prepared?
The farm I buy from has an abattoir on-site, I get to choose my cuts and thickness and they wrap and freeze everything (including soup bones)
Yeah that’s the real deal! Those operations are rare these days.
Need to upgrade the freezer first! Then to the abbatoir! (Never heard that work before, but love it)
Yeah, I haven’t had any since we left the farm in Kansas when I was a kid. We’re definitely gonna do it. Might need to get another proofer for making the yogurt!
We do the same. I’ll be buying another half cow in a few months myself. Only way to go! 🤙🏼
