overstock.com has taken a bold new step and it might turn out to be brilliant. Go to overstock.com and look at the categories at the top and you see a place where you can click called Farmers Market. When you get to that page you see that there is an assortment of hand-picked products that offer customers throughout the country access to home delivery of seasonal, healthy food, grown and produced in their area. Hmmm! I thought I'd take a spin so I typed in Colorado farmers and 22 results came up. One of them said 5280 Pork Free-Range Pork Variety Bundle. Feel good about feeding your family humane and consciously raised pork that is free of synthetic hormones, antibiotics and steroids. This assortment includes breakfast sausage, Italian sausage, bacon, pork chops and ham steak. It went on: This Purveyor's Story: 5280 Beef ranch sits in a beautiful area of the Rocky Mountains. They are family owned and operated and offer 100-percent grass-fed, grass-finished beef from humane, consciously-raised steers that are free of synthetic hormones, antibiotics, steroids and feedlots. Studies show that cattle who are fed all-grass diets yield beef higher in calcium, B vitamins, magnesium, beta-carotene and potassium compared to cattle that are fed corn… their words not mine.
