I am the lucky recipient of one large (1.65 lb) pork steak, about 3/4" thick from the Prather Ranch man at the San Francisco Ferry Plaza farmers' market. This “piggy,” as he sweetly called it, was fed on grapes and...

Check out the chickens at the Prather Ranch booth at the Grand Lake or Temescal farmers markets on Saturday and Sunday. Their chicken are on the smaller side (usually around 3 pounds). You will need to get there early as they do...

The lamb turned out great – I used a recipe for a Turkish stew. I ended up going to Prather Ranch in the Ferry Building since I didn’t have time to drive out to the places mentioned above. I was there late on a Friday...

If you strike out in the East Bay, Prather Ranch in the Ferry Building has leaf lard. I got some on Saturday. It is white (not yellow at all) and has a very faint odor.

Not sure about the peninsula, but Prather Ranch in the ferry building (and at various farmers markets) has some very good bacon (though pretty expensive). Over in Oakland Ver Brugge Meat and Seafood has great bacon. Both are...

I am sure you could find something at the Sac Co-op. They have Diestel, Rocky, Prather Ranch, and some natural pork brand I cannot recall. They are also pretty good about special orders. Unfortunately, parking is insane!

Prather Ranch at the Ferry Plaza was advertising 2 different heritage turkey breeds and one heritage chicken breed.

I’ve seen them at the Prather Ranch shop at the Ferry Plaza.

For the past few weeks, the Prather Ranch people at the Saturday farmers' market at Grand Lake in Oakland have been taking reservations for heritage birds. I don’t think that PR is now in the pultry business, but instead...
