'm reviving an old topic that I brought up in the past but didn't proceed with at that time: Cow-pooling.
The idea is to go in together on a steer which would be butchered and packaged for us. I have a source I use locally now and wanted to open it up to anyone else interested. They have heritage breeds for their steer, hogs, lambs, goats, and chickens. They are 100% grass-fed and organic, they do not age their meats, and price includes all butchering and packaging.
Pork:
1 Whole English Hog, Cut and Wrapped: $6.25lb (You may choose a young suckling as small as 40.lbs and a market size hog can weigh up to 290.lbs (finished weight).)
One Whole Luau/Oven Roaster "Kunekune" Pig $6.95lb (R.R.F's Kunekune oven roasters/luau pigs can weigh from 10.lbs up to 50.lbs (finished weight), you choose.)
Beef:
1 Whole Beef (240.0lbs) $6.44lb
Desert Beef Share Package (1/3, 80.0+lbs) $6.60lb
Other:
Chickens: 20 for $250 (2.5-3.5 pounds each, regular processing of chickens includes leaving feet and necks attached (no heads). No Giblets promised)
1 Whole Lamb $8.00lb
1 Whole Goat $8.00lb
If you want, you can become a member of the farm and buy ala carte (only farm members are allowed on the their property). Located in Phelan, pickup days on the farm first Saturday of the month (they do not ship). http://www.rainbowranchfarms.com/
Anyone interested in a hog, steer, lamb or goat share, or splitting up an order of chickens, PM me and I will get back to whomever is interested.

I really want to! I just can't afford to drive out there with the amount of time I'm working and how little I'm making while doing it. :/ God damn it, being a grown up sucks.

Haha, I like that arrangement. (: Maybe I'll take you up on it sometime! It's been too long anyway!
