Holiday Bow 
The holidays are here and it's time to prepare some festive feasts!  
 
SOURCE Local Foods is here to help!  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here at Source Local Foods we have partnered with some really great local companies. Three of those are Frontiere Natural Meats, Innovative Foods and Mountain States Poultry.

 

Frontiere is a local Longmont company that sells Angus Natural Beef, Certified Grass fed Organic Beef, and Natural Bison. One of the unique aspects of their Angus Beef and Bison are that both of these products are free of GMO grains. GMO is going to be a very hot topic in the coming years and customers are going to be asking the question, "Is this meat GMO free"? We are already there with Frontiere, so order this in-demand, high-quality beef and bison for your customers today!


Innovative Foods, a local Evans Colorado company is run by a husband and wife team who are some of the nicest folks around. Dave has over 30 years of experience in the meat business and knows everything you'd ever want to know about meat. But it is the co-op that he established with a group of local Colorado Berkshire producers that has us really excited. Berkshire Pork is hands-down the best pork you can buy -- throw in the fact that it is a 100% local Colorado product and you can't go wrong! This item is available weekly, but the supply is limited so get your order in now.


Mountain State Poultry from Wellington CO is run by a small partnership of family and friends. They too are running a co-op with several chicken growers. This product is all naturally-raised with outdoor access for all the birds. The company also supplies each grower with the feed and chicks so the product is very consistent and always flavorful -- think Grandma's backyard chicken coop kind of flavor. The company also has one of the cleanest facilities we have ever seen in Colorado and is poised to grow as the word spreads about this product!

 

Speaking of meat, our newest addition to the SOURCE Family is Rich Hamlin, Meat & Protein Manager.  Affectionately called "The Meat Guy", Rich brings extensive natural meat industry and culinary experience to SOURCE Local Foods. With a background that includes experience as a sous chef, Rich has many creative recipes to offer, including the delicious prime rib roast listed below.  

 

Enjoy and Happy Holidays!! 

   

Until next time -- May the SOURCE Be with You!
