Chronicle: Farmers create a market niche for eco-friendly heritage meats

"Feedlot cattle are like taking a 16-year-old teenager and putting him on a crash obesity program," [Fuller] says. They look big, but it's all fat hanging on a teen's frame. Fuller lets his cattle grow into their adult muscle.  "It's the difference between a high school athlete and a pro athlete -- they've filled out."

Interesting article in the Chronicle today featuring Farmer Ted and his heritage meats.

Ted's meats are currently available at the Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market (Saturdays) and at the Berkeley Farmer's Market (Thursdays + Saturdays) and rumor is that he will be branching out to new markets soon.
