I go in with another family and buy half a cow directly from the local rancher.

That's best. I raised our own Pigs, beef, lamb, and chicken, during our full house family years. It's just me and the wife now.

In the 60s and 70's our town had farmers who had delivery trucks and customer routes. Fresh beef, eggs, poultry, cheese, produce, but the grocery store chains paid off local politicians to ban them. My grandmother was devastated. She hated grocery stores. Every couple weeks after the farmers were banned from delivery sales I had to take her to the butcher, the cheese shop, the bakery, the spice shop, and such. No "one stop shopping".
