Around these parts we emphasize proper nutrition as much as we do intense exercise. In one’s journey towards better health, it is wise to include beef from grass-fed cows. Here’s what Charles Poliquin and Mark Sission have to say about grass-fed beef. Bottom line: cows were meant to eat grass, and beef from grass-fed cows tastes better and is healthier for you.
In that vein, Emily Anderson and I will be organizing a beef buy through Wolf Creek Farm. By purchasing through a cow-share like this, you get a significant discount on stellar quality beef and support a great local business. Here’s the breakdown:
Pricing (assuming we order an entire cow): $5.38 per lb
Portion Options:
- 1/2 cow (about 190 lbs)
- 1/4 cow (about 95 lbs)
- 1/8 cow (about 47.5 lbs)
- 1/16 cow (about 23.75 lbs)
Each share yields a variety of cuts, including ground beef, steaks, organs, etc., and the meat should be available sometime in late-November or early-December. Please comment on this post (or email chrisg@crossfitcharlottesville.com) if you are interested, and include the amount of beef you would like.
Chris, I would be interested in 1/8 or maybe 1/4 cow. Thanks
Would be interested in 1/16 or 1/8
I’d also be interested in 1/16 too…
i’m interested – 1/16 or 1/8 depending on the cuts i’d get
I’ll talk to Jon, but I’m willing to bet we’re interested… 1/16 or 1/8 depending on how much freezer space we have
1/8 is more than I can eat in a week….but I guess we could freeze some of it. Yeah, we’re interested.
yes please 1/16 – 1/8
Put us down for 1/16.
I am up for 1/16
Hey Chris
Definitely interested in 1/16.
Interested in 1/8. Thanks.
