This news just out from Whole Foods. Note the meat will be sold in New Mexico: "Panorama Meats, Inc., the nation's leading organic grass-fed beef producer, has partnered with Arapaho Ranch, the nation's largest certified organic cattle operation, to supply Panorama Organic Grass-Fed Beef exclusively to 28 Whole Foods Market stores in the Rocky Mountain region beginning this week." "Operated by the Northern Arapaho Indian Tribe on 595,000 acres on Wyoming's Wind River Indian Reservation in West Central Wyoming, Arapaho Ranch received USDA organic certification in 2008. The tribe has raised an all-Angus herd —a breed known for producing tender, highly flavorful beef — on a year-round diet of grass and forbs since the 1940s. Its 3,500 cattle and 2,800 yearlings never enter a feedlot, are never fed antibiotics or growth-stimulating hormones and coexist with predators and a diverse mix of wildlife on Wyoming's high plains." The agreement, resulting from a half-year of discussions between Panorama and the Northern Arapahoe Indian Tribal Council, makes Whole Foods Market stores in Colorado, New Mexico, Kansas and Utah the exclusive U.S. retailers of Arapaho Ranch beef.
