This is great! I met a service guy at work who also owns his own farm. I asked him about the possibility of buying beef and milk from him and was told it was illegal in my state. You could "give" it to family but you can't sell it to strangers. I had no idea this was a Thing until I talked to him 2 weeks ago. Blew my mind. How can farmers not sell their own property? (Vegetables are okay to sell, but not any meat or dairy products)
I think this is something to push for in my state now that we've gone full Rep.
Talk again to that service guy who also owns his own farm. Perhaps you can work out a trade for beef, milk, etc for something he could use. (feed for cows)

Who regulates meat? The FDA. This is the problem.
