As you may know I am a huge fan of grass fed beef and all of the benefits that go along with it. We eat a decent amount in our household and while we try to eat organic things as much as we can, at least with thin skinned fruits and veggies, all of the red meat is grass fed. So we really try to save on cost where ever we can since it can all really add up.
Jason, who works at Destiny Organics, is a big help in that area. For about a year now some friends and I have purchased our grass fed meat from him. He has a wide array of meat, as well as fruits, vegetables, granolas, cheeses, etc. If you want his detailed price list, you can email him for it at jason@destiny-organics.com.

The main staple that we always get from him is the ground beef. We get it by the case, so 12 dozen per case, and it’s about $5.80 per pound (individually wrapped so easy for one night dinners). It’s almost half of what we pay at Whole Foods and the quality is great! And, it’s easy to get it. We just email him our order and then go pick it up at Sweet Auburn Market (downtown Atlanta next to Grady just off 75) which is a fun and entertaining place to visit regardless.

Here the kids are checking out the “cow’s feet” and “pig ears”. Tate just begged me not to get those things. Thanks Tate, I’m not that bad! Well, okay, maybe we tried liver and some really hot things that the kids tried like a champ (I know, that one was super mean), but still…
