The only beef I buy is from the co-op so I trust the source. But I don't know how they are slaughtered. E. Coli Path Shows Flaws in Beef Inspection By MICHAEL...
That really is scary. I would grind my own, but roasts are so expensive. I only buy beef from the coop as well, but how do we know about the processing? ... ...
I have emailed a few of the producers I buy from and inquire as to the processor and if they have witnessed the process from start to finish. I have had no...
One of the primary paths of e coli infection in the conventional meat processing system is that the cattle often arrive at the processing plants, from the...
E. coli can't stand being cooked. So if the meat is cooked well there shouldn't be a problem. A lot of food-borne illnesses trace back to poor handling,...
That's certainly something to consider. Eating undercooked ground meat is just risky, if that was in fact the case. But it's just conjecture on our part. ...
The Standards Committee was formed to address producer compliance issues in regards to standards set forth by the Standards Committee and approved by the Board...
Please read Lori's message "Oklahoma Food Coop Standards Committee". The label reading job can be done from home-- a great opportunity to volunteer without...
Lori, from what you said about what experience you need, I won't qualify. I had volunteered to work on the committee but I think you need more than I can...
Hi Martha. Besides having members on the committee that are familiar with certain aspects of farming, etc., we also need members from the membership-at-large....
Same for me, too, Lori. I don't have what you're looking for, either. Volunteering at my pick-up location will have to suffice, I'm afraid. Thanx! Monica...
Hi Monica, Thanks for your previous consideration of becoming a member of the committee. I really appreciate all the work that you do. I wish we could have you...
Thank you Martha! I was hoping that you would say yes. This group will be fun and easy going. And I am thankful that you are on board. I will see you on...
I really would like to have people from the general membership on the Standards Committee too. We learn as we go. We need a balance of Producers and...
Hi Monica! I would like to encourage you to reconsider. We are an easy going group and as I said before, we learn as we go. We have room on our Standards...
I have a family member trying to find the place in OKC that makes bierocks. Not exactly a food coop question, but I know that there are likely folk on here who...
Does anyone have a local source for this? Apples are one of the list that I only buy organic now and I so love apple cider, especially this time of year. I'm...

I've never seen a bierock on a menu in Okie City. The closest may be Beckie's Bierocks from the High Plains Coop, you might check with her to see if they are...
I apologize if this is a misuse of the list, but I figured a lot of you are poultry people. I have an almost grown Light Brahma rooster who is crowing and...
Somebody does them because they were brought to a coop board meeting. LOL However, I've subsequently remembered who brought them - Patty Kate. I'll send her...
I have a little issue myself. We knew we had one rooster and that was fine, but this weekend we found out we have two more. Not good in a flock of 12. If...
I put an ad on Craigslist and had a LOT of people offer to take him.? Strange, I've put roos on there before and response has been small or nil.? Thanks so...
FYI - please help spread the word to farmers and ranchers who might be interested in participating. Thanks! ... Subject: Oklahoma Agritourism Workshop...
One of our producers made a mistake and did not include 19 lbs of meat that was ordered by a member in McAlester. I know this is a long-shot, but is anyone...
Hello, I was wondering, are there any producers in the Co-op who raise and sell turkeys? Will there be any available next month, for Thanksgiving? If not,...
