I agree! Lately I've gotten so many leads for finding new local sources of pasture-raised pork, chicken, and buffalo.

All it takes is just asking around. A local farmer's market is a good place to start. If you live near a rural area, just drive around the neighborhood—often people who raise chickens properly sell their eggs, and will have a sign out front announcing that.

Here's a couple of other good online resources:

Pastured Products Directory - Eat Wild
"Eatwild's Directory of Farms lists more than 1,100 pasture-based farms, with more farms being added each week. It is the most comprehensive source for grass-fed meat and dairy products in the United States and Canada.

Eatwild Criteria: Producers listed on Eatwild certify that they meet our exacting criteria, assuring that their animals and the land are well-treated, that their products are exceptionally high in nutrition and free of antibiotics and added hormones"
Local Weston Price Chapters
"Local chapters help you find locally-grown organic and biodynamic vegetables, fruits and grains; and milk products, butter, eggs, chicken and meat from pasture-fed animals."
