Hi,

Facing the Ferry building from Market, it's toward the left. Go in at

the door near 's Refresher, then go straight down that hallway

towards the water. Fairly new. I was just stunned to see all the

signs saying " Potter Family pork, Potter family beef, " etc all at

prices not too much more than buying and cooking it yourself.

Ya Marin Sun Farms is good too, I buy eggs & other items from there.

Recently they've started to sell sandwiches too. Potter Farms are

not grain finished, all grass fed except for the pigs that get a

variety of stuff. It is Niman that finishes on grain.

Oh, the dilemma! I am so thankful to be living in the Bay Area.
