Collapse ▲MeatSuite is a free, online tool to help consumers find locally produced, affordable, delicious meats in bulk. Buying locally strengthens regional economies, supports family farms, and provides delicious, “fresh-from-the-farm” foods for consumers. Buying in bulk offers a lower price-per-pound on desirable cuts, which allows consumer to expect significant savings over meat sold by the piece. MeatSuite is designed to increase “freezer trade” (the sale of whole, halves, quarters of animals and bulk bundles of meat). Consumers can connect directly with local farmers which allows them to share about their practices, breeds, and feeds. Locally-raised meats are delicious and flavorful and consumers have the chance to try new cuts and recipes. Find delicious suggestions by checking out instagram @localmeatsuite or on Facebook.
Buying in bulk is also a win for farmers – this is more efficient and profitable and farmers benefit from a shorter supply chain. It is free for farms to create an account and add their farm and product listings. There is also a free calculator tool to help farmers develop pricing. Visit the MeatSuite website to learn more! NC Choices and NC State Extension also have some great resources to help in understanding meat label claims.
