Some of My Family’s Favorite Places To Locally Source Our Food!
We’re all looking for ways to improve our health, save a little money, and support each other through this wild ride right now, right? One of my family’s favorite ways to accomplish all three is to source our food locally as much food as possible!
Not only does it accomplish the above, but it’s also much more nutrient-dense and organically grown!
Here are a few of my favorite places to source our family’s food!
Wallace Farms in Eastern Iowa Nick is so nice and we love all their meat, but we especially love their free-range whole chickens, sugar free-nitrate free bacon, and wild-caught Alaskan salmon. Nick delivers to DesMoines every month at several different locations. So, I just order online and pick it up! It’s super convenient. They were hit pretty hard with the storm last week so any extra support you can give them next month by ordering would be extra awesome! https://wallacefarms.com/
Prudent Produce is a delivery service for local produce! Yep, they deliver right to your doorstep as often as you’d like! https://www.prudentproduce.net/
Iowa Food Coop highlights local farmers and their products where you can buy online and pick it up or have delivered to your home. https://iowafood.coop/
Dogpatch Urban Garden is a local urban garden stand! I love their place! https://www.dogpatchurbangardens.com/
I talk a lot about the benefits of raw milk! If you’re looking for how you can access some look here: https://www.realmilk.com/ (see my post about benefits of raw milk)
This local pasture-raised pork is so good! A friend of mine recently let me try some they had: https://www.facebook.com/Pasture-Raised-Goodness-441047080050875
You’ll know we buy these Local grass-fed-gluten-free beef sticks by the 100’s at a time! They are seriously SO good! The kids love them and they make such an easy on the go snack! https://www.facebook.com/CoryFamilyFarm
