How to Buy Pennsylvania Meat from Home

If you've ventured out to a supermarket since the COVID-19 crisis hit Pennsylvania, you may have noticed that they're often a bit of a mess. Depending on what time of day you shop, entire shelves are often empty, and many items never seem to be in stock. One of the sections of the market that often seems to be depleted is the meat department (and deli counters), especially common items like ground beef, chicken breasts, bacon and sausages.

There is one pretty simple solution that not only helps you stay stocked up on your family's favorite proteins, but also helps Pennsylvania's farmers and ranchers, who are struggling right now, like pretty much every other food-producing sector. That solution is: Buy local meat online! There are many farms and butcher shops offering the same beautiful quality meats that you'd normally find at the farmers market, but for home delivery or curbside pick-up on the farm, or at other nearby locations. Take a look at our list of sites where you can buy Pennsylvania meat from home, and place an order today to help support the local agricultural economy!
