I wish we could find organic ground beef! I'm sure I could get it if I were willing to drive a bit more. My compromise on that is to support local producers. I live in a small town that really is becoming more like a suburb. But we still have a nice small grocery store that carries tons of stuff and buys and sells a lot of local produce. So I go there. The guys that work behind the meat counter are great and really receptive to all the customers. They trim the fat off my chicken and beef so I don't have to. I can buy 6 pounds of ground beef and they automatically offer to wrap each pound (or two) separately. The whole store really thrives on small town customer service. So I love going there even if they don't have much in the way of organic products.
