Where can one get grass-fed beef?

Question

Other posts have been discussing grass-fed versus corn-fed beef. I was wondering if it is possible to obtain grass-fed beef in the USA (specifically, San Diego) and, if so, where. The Omnivore's Dilemma discusses a farm producing it but you have to go there to get it!

Answer

see if you can get some from Burger Lounge - they have the best for ground beef.

I noticed in the latest Feerless Flyer that Trader Joe' is advertising grass-fed ground beef. I've also purchased grass fed cuts of beef at Joe's in the past.

DaLe Ranch has some grass fed beef. You have to ask though, some of the beef is corn finished, and they carry meats from other ranchers as well as their own. But the grass fed beef I've had from them was quite tasty. They're at the North Park farmers' market on Thursday among others.
