Patio Pondering: Local Meat Dreams, Local Meat Realities

  • Summary

  • In this episode of Patio Ponderings, we dive into the realities behind the “Buy Local” movement in meat production. Inspired by my own experiences selling lamb and a video from a candid Iowa farmer, I explore the hidden challenges that small livestock producers face—bottlenecks at local processors, consumer preferences for premium cuts, and the hard truth about scaling niche markets.

    While the dream of buying local is admirable, the practical hurdles can’t be ignored. So, what’s the way forward? How do we support local farmers while fixing the gaps in infrastructure and demand?

    Grab a coffee, settle in on the patio, and join me as we unpack the real story of local meat.
