Greetings.

My answer would be either finding a local grass fed farm or ordering by mail from a larger farm that delivers anywhere within the U.S.A.

Thank you  ;D.  So far I bought cagefree eggs, but all the fish I could find has been frozen and all the meat grain-fed.  I wrote the Weston Price Chapter and they said they'll find me fertile eggs and free range chicken.  It's squirrel season here now (hunting), anyone here have experience eating raw squirrel?  Today I've just eaten the eggs Rockystyle and apples.

Hi SP,

I realize you are not super close, but TX has a bunch of traditional farms.  I list farms generally on the north and central parts of the state, some of which may ship without freezing if that is what you desire, here:

And you know, the WAPF lists milk sources on realmilk.com.  I think they should keep an international list of farms for all kinds of foods, not just raw milk.  Just my $0.02, but a good idea for someone to bring up to their WAPF chapter leader, imho.

Thank you for the info Satya. 

I went out seventy five miles and back today looking for grassfed nonfrozen and organic fruit.  I won't explain everything, as that is unnecessary, but trust me, a lot of the stuff was frozen, grainfed and stinky beyond belief.  I found good fuji apples though, also nice rosemary, oranges, crab and oysters shelled, nothing else.  I bought some organic sweet butter (pasteurized) and more cage-free eggs.  They swore up and down that everything was right, well basically (I didn't ask them to sign anything).

I got the food home and looked at the crab (as the fish guy wouldn't let me have a good look at it there).  The crab seems cooked in my perception.  I'll save the oysters for me to eat tomorrow.  This evening I ate butter and crab seasoned with rosemary.  I ate an orange an hour later.  I still have a good amount of both for tomorrow.


I'll look around the forum here tomorrow and see what kind of trouble I can get into.
