Until 2 years ago I lived in Ventura County, CA. I don't know of any grass

fed meat sources there. The only grass fed beef I know of is New Zealand

beef sold at Wild Oats but you'd have to go to LA for that.

Well there are lots of strawberry fields and such. I don't know of any

farms that raise beef cattle. There used to be a few family organic produce

farms. I don't know if they are around anymore. You can check out the

farmers markets for that. I know there are people in Ojai , Filmore and

Santa a and places like that, that raise their own chickens for eggs. I

don't know that they advertise. I just know that a guy I worked with did

that and so did some of his neighbors. I think he lived in Ojai but I am

not sure anymore.

Sorry I am not much help.

----->thanks for sharing what you know about that area, Irene. Doesn't sound

like there's much local farming going on. too bad...i was asking because i

was encouraging someone on one of my pet health lists to feed her dog

*pastured* meats/organ/bone instead of factory farmed and told her to check

around for local farms that pasture their animals (she's in ventura cnty).

oh well...thanks again.

Harmony Farms in Montrose (Outside of Los Angeles, Ca) sells range fed New

Zealand meats. They even sell special meats for pets, and it really helps keep

the cost down. I don't live in that area anymore, but I know they have a wide

delivery area if you order a minimum ($150.00 is what it used to be).
