Local Meat Options At Market

This year at the Clear Lake Farmers Market we are fortunate enough to have a variety of meat and eggs available.  Several of our vendors offer farm fresh eggs and duck eggs are available every other week.  Whole chickens can also be preordered.  We have 4 producers this year who offer cuts of either grass fed or corn fed beef and 2 of those also offer custom processed pork by the whole or half.  To see which vendors will be at market with meat and eggs each week you can visit our website where we have an interactive market directory: www.clearlakefarmersmarket.com/market-directory
