Beef Directory Launched for Northeast

Thu, 04/13/2017 - 11:52am -- Jean Davis

In consideration of the number of Northeast farmers selling their beef product directly to the public, and those consumers being especially interested in local sourcing of their food, the national beef checkoff has just launched the Northeast Beef Directory through a partnership with the Virginia Beef Industry Council.  This new website, includes robust educational resources that inform consumers about their options for choosing beef.

The goal of this new web resource is to help connect Northeast consumers with local beef markets and farmers selling beef directly.

Any beef producer or butcher shop located in the Northeast region selling beef directly to the public is encouraged to be a part of the directory by filling out the Producer Submission Form.

If you have any questions about this resource, please contact Christie Brown at cbrown [at] pabeef.org

. For more information about beef promotion in the Northeast region, go to www.NortheastBeef.org.
