Hi,

Any of these farmer's markets sell grass-fed beef?

May 10, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterMehul

Mehul that I don't know specifically. Best to contact or visit the individual farmers' markets. I suspect you'd find some of that at the stores though. Most of what I see at the markets are product and some baked items, tamales, flowers, etc. But ya never know!

May 10, 2013 | Registered CommenterConejo Joe

Got you, thanks!
