Wed, 02/15/2012 - 08:45 — Ed ArmstrongIn case someone didn't already post this, there's an article in today's Sac Bee about buying local meat:
http://www.sacbee.com/2012/02/15/4263722/sacramento-area-families-buy-meat.html
The article doesn't have a lot of depth, but it shows that more people are aware of the benefits of buying from local farms, and it provides a contact information for a couple of local ranchers who sell to the public.
