Where can I get organic meats like chicken, beef in Houston?

Right...... I mean why would there be a local ranch in TEXAS.... seriously? Insane.......

 

LOL, great stuff

 

I actually saw a farm right by Lake Conroe the other day selling organic beef and raw milk. Another one I know about is out in Tomball.

They're around just outside the 'burbs for sure.

 

I buy mine from Costco

 

There is one place...by old Richmond and synott.

 

When I buy organic meats from a grocery store, how do I really know that the meats are organic? Never know if they can pass regular meat as an organic meat...I know it's illegal but just wondering...

 

They have to pay for a license from the USDA. Certified organic products will have this symbol:



Not to say that this is foolproof though. I'm not sure how often they audit these farms to check up on their practices but I do know that it is expensive and takes a long time to be certified organic.

 

Georgia's Farm to Market on I10 and Eldridge? is all organic food from local suppliers. Lots of good stuff there.

Edit: They also sell a lot of organic cleaning supplies and natural yard fertilizers.

 

Randalls has grass fed ground beef at decent price. It's pre-packaged.

 

Here's an article that you may find interesting related to organic foods & their labeling:

I wouldn't trust anything that website says. Comparing milk to rat poison is a freaking joke. Morons.

 

Kroger sells organic product too.

HEB.

 

Organic milk is pretty much the only truly organic product I buy. The overuse of antibiotics and hormones in the dairy industry is rampant.

 

We recently went to a restaurant in Baltimore and inadvertently had an exchange almost verbatim to this one.
