Of course that is why people go to farmers market to buy their food. And why that market is growing so fast. What I don't understand is why Earl's thinks Alberta Beef isn't good enough. On a general sense feedlot raised beef is raised in mass production mode, and therefore there is heavy antibiotic use, steroid use, poor diet and all that. But there are a lot of grassfed ranchers in Alberta that serve the rest of the market.

I heard the lady from Earls on CBC today. From what I understood, she acknowledged that there are some good ranches in Alberta, but they don't produce enough to fill the demand that Earls has.
