Poultry and Beef near Bend, Oregon

[geoindigo]

Does anyone know where I might find fresh, farm-raised poultry and grass-fed beef near Bend, Oregon? I simply can't purchase poultry from my local grocery store any longer and want to support a local farmer.

Thanks!

If you search for "Bend Farmers Market" you can view the vendor list for the last year. There are several ranches listed that I'm sure you could find contact info for on the web. I've been meaning to do a search myself. We still get our beef from the valley

There's a GREAT store Celebrate the Season that local meats from around Bend, all hormone free good stuff. Their freezer's always full of lamb, beef, veal, pork, chicken, turkey... I highly recommend them. They've also been getting in other things, growing their own produce too. Very cool folks to get to know.
