Buying Bulk Meat
In general, the most popular form of food storage is dry food, canned food, things that do not require refrigeration or to be frozen. I encourage you to buy meat and keep it in a freezer for several reasons. First, find a local farm that you can purchase from. Community supported agriculture is becoming more and more popular because it allows smaller farmers to maintain their way of life, allows the consumers to purchase and the farmers to provide, high quality food, and allows for less fuel to transport the food, thus is better for the environment. On local farms you can find the highest quality food available. These farms will often sell larger amounts of meat to consumers. For example, you can pre-order 15 chickens or 1/2 a cow worth of beef.

Just a few tips when purchasing beef. There are many different things you can do with this. You have the ability to grind your own hamburger, or you can have a meat locker do it. But you can also have many different roasts and steaks cut to your specifications for a flat rate - not matter what and how you want it done.
