drwexI've finally found a place (Chestnut Farms, http://www.Chestnutfarms.org) that will let me purchase a pork-free meat share. Thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
skreeky for setting me on the path.
The challenge now is figuring out pick-up. They've got a drop-off in Arlington, but it's only from 5-6PM, which is not easily compatible with my and Pygment's work and kid-pickup schedules. I'd love to find someone who's also interested in grass-fed, hormone- and antibiotic-free meat and would be willing to pick up my share at the same time as they pick up their own. It comes pre-frozen so storage shouldn't be difficult until we can arrange a swap.
If someone near to me is interested, check out their site for share sizes and pricing - the lowest end is 10lb/month for a six month commitment. I may try it anyway, since K will soon not be going to school in Chelmsford, but if someone has a more flexible schedule that'd be great.
