Grass-Fed Beef in Vermont: Where to Buy
Vermont has one of the strongest local food cultures in America and proportionally one of the highest densities of pasture-based farms in the country. Almost every county has direct-sale grass-fed beef options, the state's co-op network is outstanding, and Vermont beef has a national reputation for quality. Burlington's City Market, Brattleboro Food Co-op, and Hunger Mountain Co-op in Montpelier are considered benchmarks for locally sourced natural food retail. Dirty Dog Farm, a New York-based direct-to-consumer operation, includes Vermont in its weekly Northeast delivery route.
