If I needed to see my nearby neighbors raise grass fed Black Angus, I
can buy all I want but it's expensive, and also too lean for me. In
fact the neighbor farmer who uses my acreage in the next county
(Albany County), forty five minutes away, raises beef, pork, chicken
and turkey, all grass fed/free range, and he hays a part too. I can
place orders with him but that's also more than I'm willing to pay,
about double supermarket prices, however a lot lof people here buy
local grass fed/free range meats.

I get email from Josh regularly, usually with pictures and videos...
