I want to change it up and write about something other than stonework today. I want to write about something that has become a true passion for me, and something that is a growing movement across the country. Local farms and specifically local meat has been an incredible way for me to support the local economy while providing clean, healthy meat for my table. I have been involved with a meat CSA (community supported agriculture), through which I get 10 lbs of meat/mo for the upfront cost of 300 for 5 mo. This helps support the farm through winter and get my local beef, pork, and chicken while the farmers markets are closed for winter. Local and grassfed meat is fresh, tastes better, and is more nutritious than store bought meat, and I just feel good about knowing the people who operate the farm where my food comes from.
