There's a meat market on 248th in Langley called Bonettis. They farm the meat, cut it, and sell it all at the same location. Meat so fresh, it hasn't been dead for a whole day before it hits the bbq.
While you're out there, take advantage of the free range eggs sold at markets, and even along the side streets in rural Langley and aldergrove. On 232nd, you'll find a farm market with some of the finest veggies around. Since it's all farmed there, the delay from harvest to your table is a lot less than mass produced Safeway crap.
I'm tired of big supermarket's tasteless produce.

Okay, I hate to admit this but.......... we had chickens when I was growing up.
Yeah, have your laughs, I know it makes me a redneck, but I'm one of the few here who can clean and cut a chicken, so there.
Anyway, we had a lot of chickens, in fact for years we never went to Safeway, or places like that. I'll agree that every once in a while they would get into scraps, but a well taken care of flock will never have a dead chicken in general population long enough for the others to have a snack. In fact, well fed flocks would rarely fight, as there was nothing to fight about.
Plus the taste was above and beyond mass produced fowl. Both meat, and eggs, I miss those days.
