In a previous comment, I had sought interest in sharing a grass-fed cow from a farmer in Lancaster. The price is $4 per pound of hanging weight and usually ends up being between $300 to $400 per person for about 50 pounds of meat. The meat will be a combination of steaks, roasts, cubes, and ground beef and will come vacuum packed in meal sized portions.
So far 8 people have already expressed interest and 1 cow is already ordered. It will arrive around the end of September. If another 8 people email us within the next week, we can order another cow. If fewer people order, it is possible to place smaller orders as well.
We have been getting “bulk beef” from this farmer for several months now and it seems to be the least expensive and most delicious way to get local grass-fed beef!

John, I think Lindz and I are interested in it. can you choose what you want or is it a mix? I guess what I am saying is can you get some ground sirloin,chuck and round maybe in 5# portions and the rest in primals or portioned/cubed?
The 1/8 of a cow is a mix of a bunch of cuts. You can also contact Daryl (the farmer) and get different specific cuts.
