This is one of the coolest web sites I have found in a long time!
https://usabeef.org/
It is a site for local ranchers to sell directly to the public (without the government or corporate ag/meatpacker intervention). The site does NOT appear to try and get between you and the rancher. They have direct contact info for you to call/e-mail and buy beef in your local area.
Just a suggestion... If you find a guy here and decide to try them out for a purchase, you might want to subtly let them know you will pay cash and do not require a receipt to maybe save a couple dollars too. Even if the rancher does not offer you a discount, it will still deprive the government of tax revenue they will use to further erode your rights.
