I run a small farm. I have animals. I don't use antibiotics or vaccines or herbicides, pesticides, chemical fertilizers (I use manure straight from the animal's butt to ground).
I have about 20 cows and I should be able to raise 10 steer a year for sale. All grass-fed. One steer should feed a family of 6 for a whole year. You can get half a cow. Costs are CHEAPER than buying at the store, and it's MUCH higher quality than anything you can buy. See, I have very little inputs, just my labor, hay, and some protein supplement in the winter (made from cottonseed meal / soy beans and some minerals).
I am one of THOUSANDS of people doing this all across the country. We are pretty much everywhere. You'll also find people running row crops (corn, soy, and pretty much everything else) in your area.
How do we find each other? I don't know, but I know that farms that have been doing this for a few decades aren't looking for more customers. Somehow people are making the connection and they're getting their farm products into people's freezers.
What do YOU need to do? It's really, really simple. Start looking for local farms. Start talking to local people who know the farms. Visit some farms. Ask questions. Ask them who they know doing what. We all know each other because we talk to each other all the time. I can tell you exactly what my neighbors are doing because I see them almost every day.
A really, really easy way to start is to buy a cow, or half a cow, even a quarter cow. Find three more families. Invest in a chest freezer. (They're extremely efficient and cheap.) Find a farmer who raises cows, and ask him if he or someone he knows sells finished steer, and where they get them processed. Expect to pay about $2,000 for the animal and about $1,000 for the processing, more or less. (Probably more nowadays, but prices will go down soon.) Split that four ways and you only need about $750 for about 125 lbs of meat.
The meat will last at least a year in your freezer. Half will be ground beef. The rest will be roasts and steaks, as you ordered the processor to do it.
You will NEVER go back to store bought meat.
Heck, I brought in some of the ground beef I bought to feed my workers on their breaks. They said those burgers were the BEST meat texture and flavor they've ever had, bar none. Too bad I can't sell it to my customers. (And we buy the highest quality patties we can find -- never frozen, 100% angus, american raised)
Start making plans now. Start talking with friends and families. You will not regret it!
And this is only step 1. Once you've got your beef supply, find someone selling lambs for slaughter, and learn how to do it yourself, save yourself the expense of a butcher. It's really easy. I'd sell my lambs at about $200 a pop, and you'd get something like 40 lbs of meat from it.
Chickens are super-easy to raise yourself. It takes about 3 months from start to finish for meat birds. Start with the Freedom Ranger Color Yield. I had really good results with them. Egg layers are super easy too. My family processed about 100 meat birds in about 6 hours. No plucker, just fingers to pluck them. Those birds disappeared from our freezer FAST.

This gives the farmers the choice to pay our ZOG taxes or not.
Taxes that will be used for White replacement and Greater lsraeI or to strengthen the farmer's business.
Most farmers would greatly prefer cash. They don't even like checks.
