Last week I read an article that said “to lower your price, you must also lower your standards.” And that is exactly what our president did last week when he struck a bargain to allow 300,000 metric tons of beef to be imported tariff free. Sure, it might temporarily lower the cost of beef at the grocery store for you, but at what cost TO you?! We do not know where this product will come from or how it was raised or how it was processed. But here in the USA we are held to a much higher standard than most. And for good reason- so we can put not only a quality product, but also a safe product on your plate. Now I am not really here to argue politics today but I am here to thank those of you who choose to support our small, local business. If you care about quality, if you care about animal husbandry and if you care about the standards that are implemented and followed to get product to your plate, know where it comes from.
